Travel Spreadsheet:

If you’re curious about how much money we anticipated spending in each place on our list (and also how much we have ACTUALLY spent so far), you can take a look here. We hope to make long term travel feel more accessible and attainable for everyone, so we are going to be incredibly transparent with our finances along the journey.

Make sure to check our spreadsheet throughout the year to see real time updates.
