Why do holidays cost so much before you have even left?

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 26 November 2012 | Views [490]

So far we are out of pocket a lot - By my calculations, we have already spent more gearing ourselves up for this trip than we plan to spend in one month of travel!!

It is beyond ridiculous. Although, I think I am to blame for a lot of it...

Me walking into Kathmandu, Mountain designs or any shop specialising in travel gear - "We really do need this" Sure I do.. When have I ever needed or worn zip off pants??

I suppose the rabies injections may not be needed at $300 per person (eek) BUT what if I get bitten by a rabid dog. I would never forgive myself for trying to save a little cash.

I think now that all the insurance and jabs are out of the way, and I have a whole pack of ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY items, we might be able to squash in some more saving!! Here is hoping.


Woohoo we are nearly off!!!
