We're Chris and Steve, traveling the world with everything we own inside two carryon bags. In this video we share all the costs of our 3rd year of fulltime travel compared to our budget of only $52,000. Join us as we ditch the golf clubs and travel around the world. But this isn't your typical luxury vacation. We're on a mission to prove affordable travel is possible, even for retirees!

You might be surprised to learn that a year of longterm travel can sometimes cost less than you think! Track along as we document our spending on everything from transpacific cruises to local eats and comfortable budgetfriendly accommodations. We'll compare our realworld expenses to our pretrip budget and see how trends like inflation affect travel costs in different destinations.

But fear not, pennypinching adventurers! We'll also share our savvy strategies for keeping costs low without sacrificing the comfort or adventure.

So, buckle up and get ready to dive into the numbers, breaking down all our expenses and money saving strategies to make your retirement dream a reality. Let's see the world, explore new cultures, and prove that retirement can be an affordable epic adventure!
