Why we DON’T keep track of our expenses or budget on the road!
If you are like us, you have spent some time on travel blogs, YouTube Channels (like ours!) and Facebook on travel groups, and the most common question, after ‘how do I make coffee without power?’, is generally ‘how much do I need to do the lap of Oz?’ or ‘how is everyone affording it?’ And you will find the answers vary but a general consensus – start with a budget of $1000/week and reduce it…
