Hi Nancie,
It takes some work to track expenses, but I find it to be a very illuminating exercise. If you have an iPhone, this is one of my fav expense tracking apps:

For me, the realization is that full-time travel doesn’t have to be over the top expensive. I travel 5 months of the year, but always come back to a full time job, so I never really keep a good tab on my expenses. Next time, I will try an make a point of tallying up the ‘bill’.!

Like others, I find it incredibly helpful and inspiring to see the breakdown. I plan to be location independent too and slow travel full-time, while making trips back to Canada to visit my family. I love how you march to the beat of your own drum. Keep up the fantastic work! 🙂

Hi Tim,
Tracking expenses does get a bit addictive, doesn’t it? I actually look forward to reconciling my expenses each month! (I don’t think I’m normal).

Thanks for sharing Nora.

Hi Laura,
Indeed, money is a very taboo topic in many places/cultures, which is too bad; why is it that we will talk about the latest anti-depressants we’re taking, or our sex lives, before we will talk about money?
Not talking about money and not educating our kids about it doesn’t empower anybody – it just creates a generation of people who can’t manage their finances and are perpetually crippled by them.
(Sorry for the rant….that vein runs deep)! 😉
