Those are some really good points. I am an “old lady” and I still put aside an amount of money each week, saving for travel. I want to be able to take trips and find that putting a little money each week (I found a thing on Pinterest that gives you an amount to save each week and at the end of the year you will have $5000!) You are so right – you don’t miss the money!!!
I can’t wait to hear more about your journeys!
Hi Jane,
Thanks for stopping by to read the blog post. I love this :) Yes putting money away each week is such a great tip. I never missed the money I put away but I was so glad I had it while adventuring in a new place. :)
xx, Emma
This was a wonderful read!
I enjoyed the simplicity of it. Your ideas make complete sense to me. We can do this! Thanks for the inspiration! My short trip to Nashville will happen! I will start with this trip coming up already in April.
Cheers!
Hi Suzanne,
I am SO excited to hear this. Ahh Nashville is such a fun place too.. have a blast. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask! xo, Emma
Great post! All really great ideas, and I especially like the Qapital one. But when I signed up for the Qapital, I didn’t receive the 20 dollars. Do you know how I go and do that? It didn’t ask for a referral code to enter but I clicked the link.
Hi Ewelina, you receive the $20 after you make your first deposit into the “goals” account by using a rule. Aka if you added the ’round-up’ rule and spent $2.35 at starbucks and then Qapital saved that .65 towards your goal. Then you make the $20. Hope this helps! xx, Emma
Emma, Thank you so much for all the information and breaking it all down. Enjoy your trip to Spain I will be following along via IG. Our next big trip is China in October with a few smaller trips in between. I would love advice on what to wear, comfort wise and still look fashionable and fit in to your surroundings. Maybe a post on the blog? Safe travels and fun saving!
I’m so glad you enjoyed this post Ava! Wow that sounds awesome. China has turned into one of my favorite countries – I’ve only ever been to Beijing but I’d love to return and do more cities. Where are you going in China? We went in November and it was very cold. We worn Bernardo down jackets (from Nordstrom) and basically worn beanies, lace up boots, leggings and turtlenecks almost every day! But I’ve heard that october isn’t as cold.. xx, Emma
Thanks Emma, great tips. I have money taken off my pay right into the travel account and it works. Look forward to hearing about your next trips. I’m planning a trip to Turkey, can’t wait, travelling opens up your eorld for sure?
Great travel posts. We’re going to Spain in May /June for 3 weeks. Meeting our 2 daughters and their boyfriends. Going to Barcelona, Valencia and San Sebastian (road trip through wine country). So looking forward to it. If you have any suggestions on what to pack for a 3 week trip please pass it along.
Yay I’m glad these posts have been helping you Karen! How exciting – all of those places are so amazing. I can’t wait to head there in about a week. I am actually going to be doing a post all about what to pack for different trips (Europe trips, backpacking trips, beach vacations, and more!) So stay tuned on that post. :)
Great advise Emma… you are a very wise young woman?love Anthony Bourdain’s quote❤️Perfect ✨?✨
Aw thank you Karen! I really appreciate you taking the time to read & comment. xx, Emma
