Want to Travel More?

I'd like to travel period.Have not because of all of the above, really. It'd have to be during summer so the klids don't miss school. We'd have to coordinate both of us getting time off, which is hard when you both work and go to school. I will have a bit easier time scheduling once I get out of the Army, but then it's back to school while working...so..I hope it's something I can do later in life.Maybe I'll try and go to the Chicago herf.

I would love to travel more. Time would be an issue with my wife as it's harder for her to get days off work. My boss is pretty cool and I can usually get any days that I need off. Money would definitely be the biggest issue. There's lots of places outside the country that I would love to see but it just seems to expensive. I went to Cost Rica and then Australia/New Zealand when I was in high school but each of those cost a few thousand dollars for one so trying to come up with the money for two seems hard.

My wife and I love to travel for pleasure, but since the birth of our son we haven't had the vacation time saved up to go anywhere big. End of March we are going to Belize and Honduras which will be our first big vacation since he was born. My wife and I both travel periodically for work and we try and go together if it's some place we haven't been that way at least half the travel cost will be paid by our employers. We are doing Philly, Chicago, Baltimore, and San Diego with work this year so it should be a good travel year. For us the biggest challenge is getting the time off work. We are pretty good shoppers so good travel deals can be found if you look hard enough. We like renting houses or apartments when we travel abroad rather than hotels. Cheaper and more authentic in most cases. Now if you've got a line on cheap airfare I'm all ears. That's usually our biggest expense.

I would love to travel more. Usually, money is the reason I don't do it more often, but sometimes it's a work schedule problem. I'll be going to Chicago and/or New York later this year. I really need to save up and do a tropical vacation. Or just buy a one way ticket.

I'm all about taking my fam on weekend vacations. It's tough with our dog Frankie though. Having someone to tend to him while we're gone can be a hassle.

We travel all the time. Empty nesters. Dogs are taken care of with the doggy door and automatic feeder and water. By motorcycle. Truck with tent. And our RV gets delivered in March. There'll be a lot more traveling going on then! All my travels now are here in the states. My first career in the Army has killed any desire to to ever leave the country again. Now we hit up a different state park, national park, BLM, etc. every time.
