It checks out. I spent $2000 on a 6-month trip to Tahiti, now that doesn't include airfare because I stowed away on a Panamanian oil freighter. Also no hotel, because I built a dwelling from twigs and mud.

Exclusive of airfare? That's not included in your budget?
Airfare varies so widely---if you're stuck traveling at peak season, then you're gonna blow the budget. I didn't include airfare in the budget b/c lots of people save up miles to defray the cost of long-haul trips.
Too many people stay home because they think traveling has to be a "lifestyles of the rich and famous" endeavor. It doesn't. I have watched too many friends & relatives put off travel for retirement or the so-called golden years, only to end up decrepit, unable to go anywhere, or worse, dead.
I'd rather range far & wide on the funds I have now than stay home and just dream about it, waiting to win the lottery. Chacun a son gout....
