19 Months of Family Travel Expenses, From Expats to Nomads

I know how much you love to travel and you just wish you could take more vacations, longer vacations or take a leap into full-time travel.  If you want to know about family travel expenses, we are opening the door to our lives for you.  We are sharing it all in hopes it helps you plan your journey in some way.

The thought of it is overwhelming and you feel as if you need to be rich to make any of this happen.  I know you think we are rich, as we have been traveling full-time for 3 years, so we must be.   I hate to break the news to you, but we aren’t rich!  Perhaps we are rich with experiences and travel, but we don’t have endless amounts of money.

We have made travel a very high priority in our lives and part of that is making choices that help feed into that priority.  We live a very simple life in exotic or dream destinations.  Yes, I will admit we have lived in some incredible places, but I will be the first to tell you we still maintain a steady budget and cost of living.  We select locations and determine how long we will be there, based on their affordability.

So are you curious what travel expenses this family of four has?  Not to worry we share it all.  We have been traveling since August of 2012 and we like to keep track of the budget, thus our travel expenses.  We want to be sure we can keep our life of travel going as long as we can, and part of that is to manage our travel costs and make sure we know when to splurge and when to stay on budget.Wagoners Abroad with Naam Rhino Adventure in Langkawi Malaysia

Please keep in mind, we only share our expenses as a guide for you.  Every person/family has different comfort levels, wants and needs.  So by default that means we all have different travel expenses.  Now, I say travel and this also includes all of our expenses from having a home base in Spain as well.  We moved to Spain as expats and then traveled from there, so you are kind of getting several different flavors of travel when you read what we have to say.
