The things that are possible when you know you to save!

Some mustachians may prefer saving the money instead of traveling, but I say gather those experiences while you're young!

Looks like it just started this month (only 10 posts).

Hope it lasts, I'm enjoying it!

This was a good one: http://www.drawnabroad.ca/blog-native/2015/6/24/my-favourite-places-to-travel

(Though the one linked in the OP was the most "Mustachian.")

she's awesome; wish i could be like her again. i used to be, stay in the cheapest place, eat cheaply; now i'm a travel snob.

i actually didnt feel comforatble staying one nigh  a motel 6 last vacation; used to be that was my goto place.

i'll still stay at relatively inexpensive places, but the cheapest place now looks to bad, even though hampton inn is just a likely to get bedbugs in a room as motel 6.

Good article.

I'm glad I followed this advice when I was in my youth, and got to explore all the places when I was young.

But there are still so many more places I didn't get to explore! Every time I see a 'where I've been' map I realize how much more I'd love to explore the rest of the world. But now, in an inexpensive, slow travel, immersion, sort of way. Not a cheap, quick glance, see everything all at once, sort of way I enjoyed in my youth.

Thanks for posting the link.  I enjoyed reading some of the posts vicariously traveling wishing I had done something similar when younger.

Glad everyone enjoyed the link. One of my dreams is to take a mini-"retirement" in a country with a lower cost of living. I think we're living in a special time when travel is unusually cheap, so why not take advantage! The costs are too bad when you're not jamming everything into 8 days
