It's always interesting to watch how full-time travelers change from their first year when they've carefully mapped out every stop, planned every day, packed way too much, underestimated the real costs and tried to "do" too many places to those that have been traveling for a few years.
When we started, we were maybe a little too budgeted. We just didn't know what to expect. Now we know where and how we can cut expenses and still love what we are doing. Thank you, Linda, for all your comments!! ❤️
We just finished up our accounting for 2024. And we set our budget for 2025 as we enter our 5th year of full-time travel. We’ve prepaid about $30K towards accommodations and cruises for 2025 and figure we’ll spend another $40-$50K. We’ll be in inexpensive South America through April, then to Portugal and England, ending up in the Pacific Northwest for a big chunk of the fall. And we have 7 cruises (4 of them repositioning cruises). 2025 is looking to be a good year.
@@Angela-ne9cyI wish! In fact, we have far less than many of our friends. Here’s the thing. We are 71 and 76 and saved while working for over 40 years each. Our Social Security covers 60-90% of our expenses and we withdraw 3-7% from our nest egg annually. We own no real estate and have no debt and no grandchildren. We spend $80-120k LIVING. And hope to die with zero. We just do it all without a fixed address.
We try to tell family and friends that "we are living not vacationing" So yes, during the month or more stay...we often have down days just doing laundry, cleaning our accommodation......hanging at the pool.... Safe travels and see you soon, Larry and Minnie
In addition to off-peak times, research neighborhoods that are more for locals. We were in Cartagena for two weeks recently and opted for a hotel in a more local (still nice) neighborhood away from the main sites. While we did have to take an occasional long walk or pay for an Uber to get to some big attractions, our accommodation and food costs were more aligned with local prices. Also, we barely saw any tourists, so we got to see a bit more of local living.
Loving this video and I saw an Instagram you were off on your next adventure so I can’t wait for those videos. Thank you for answering all these questions and have safe travels.❤️
I like your channel. Keep up the effort. I can tell your shift to faster travel is taxing the two of you a bit to create content. Know it is appreciated. Looking forward to your South American adventures.
Please do a video about how you are booking flights! I have google flight alerts which show low prices. But…then there are charges for choosing seats together, and for insurance for the flight or any changes, etc. It adds hundreds to the cost. I am very curious how you keep the costs down. Thank you!
Yes in Canada the larger airlines are now charging for carry on. I don’t pay for seat selection but check in 24 hours in advance to avoid that charge. I don’t buy insurance and live on the edge. Certainly more expensive to fly these days.
I don’t know that you need to move more quickly for the sake of TH-cam content. The videos I appreciate the most on your channel are the ones like this!
We aren't moving faster for the sole reason of TH-cam content. We are moving slightly faster to enhance our travel experience. We found ourselves getting bored and the savings gained by staying long-term didn't amount to what it did three years ago. We are excited about the year ahead and grateful that you are inspired by watching the channel! ❤️
I heard of a place that sounded great to visit in Turkey, not sure if you made it to Buyukada? I know you both loved Antalya. Maybe something to add to your revisit to Turkey? Also, have you heard of the Egadi Islands off Sicily? I would love to see those islands close up!
Do you guys have a list or episode of cheap places to go or rank them. Where to go when you have blown your budget. I'm 5 years out from traveling like you guys do and I will use your channel as a reference where we go.
We have one that we did last year and an updated one coming out this weekend! Thank you for watching! Here is a link to last years. th-cam.com/video/gIF5fP121yk/w-d-xo.html
Nice advice for budgeting. A few months back I posted about how we no longer overdo excursions except for bucket list must do sites or once in a lifetime experience, such as seeing the glaciers while in Patagonia. We found that many tours (not all) can be done independently by traveling by bus. So we research those options. And yes, we don’t have to enter every church, visit every castle or hike up every mountain. Pick and choose those most worth experiencing. For me, one of the least expensive and worthwhile rituals I have when visiting somewhere new is I take a book I’m reading and sit in a park for an hour or two. I really absorb the ambiance of the place without spending a cent.
Love you are doing South America! For Iguazu, do both sides of the falls, very different experiences. For Machu Picchu, don't go in February. They shut it down for the month
@BrianandCarrie we spent 7 weeks in Cuzco in Jan-Feb years ago. Be careful about food cleanliness that time of year. Between the two of us we had salmonella, giardia, and an amoeba infection. Only ate at mid-range restaurants to try to avoid this, but no dice. Stay away from the pisco sours and lettuce as I don't think there's much refrigeration used, and food sits longer in the kitchens low season. On the plus side, Healthcare is dirt cheap, and there's a doctor in a hut by the ticket gate at Machu Picchu. Enjoy!
I really appreciate your saying "we're just not interested". The tour leaders on the river cruises call this "ABC fatigue" (not Another Bloody Castle/Church).
@@BrianandCarrieI get the same type of comments from people because I travel a little bit faster and they always need to give me their opinion that I’m not doing it the right way. 😂 But I absolutely know what is the right way for me and I can slow down when I want and I can go fast when I want. As much as I would love to see everything I agree with you that I’ve seen a ton of churches and also I pick and choose what I really want to prioritize a time and money perspective.
I hope I inspired the cookbook comment! See, I told you I can watch Carrie cook a healthy meal why you just entertain us with your white Brian! I will even bring the wine!❤️
Great video. What are some examples of accommodations that have flexible cancellation? I know the large hotel chains usually allow for say, 24-48 hors advance free cancellation, but i get thr impression you're not staying at the Marriott in all of thr cities. In fact, id love to see a video on planning accommodations in general (so far ive done large US chains and some Airbnb, but I think yall quit those (?)). Happy New year!
Hot damn Sam I can’t wait for the Recipes on The Road cookbook by Carrie andddd for Brian to come out with an app we can buy to find all the dope haircut spots across the globe!!! I’m also going to get that travel tool y’all mentioned for a year end South Korea/Japan trip we have planned!! Such a great vid!!!
Still hoping to see you in Argentina. A money tip for you: don’t use the atms! Set up an account in Western Union, send money to yourself and pick it up at a WU office. Your money will go the furthest this way. Credit cards are not too bad. Changing U.S. cash to Argentine pesos isn’t too bad either. Just NO to ATMs!
Nice video and great advice. I have been following you guys since the start and have witnessed how you have evolved and changed things up. Being flexible and not booking things too far out is huge, as is pivoting if need be. I also agree about organized trips. Personally, I hate them and want to do my own thing. I have visited dozens of castles, and truth be told, they are all the same, on a hill and cold. I am very interested in your take of Argentinian Malbec and Chillaen Pinot Noir and the food. .
Hi to both. At the 10:00 mark, I think that it would be a shame to travel as far as you do, and then sit in a nice rental without doing the well known sights. Of course the budget as Brian highlights is important, but there are some things that are worth a splurge. Travel is very much is subjective and your priorities are very different than others. Sights and excursions can be like food. I do like having the flexibility of listening to locals and other travellers as to what they have seen nearby. It also pays to listen to special events and places that have periodic free events (like I attended the Louvre in Paris on an evening that was free of charge - I heard that from a local at a cafe). You both pivot very well and can adjust yourselves. Cheers and enjoy your cruise to Antarctica!!
We agree that some things are worth the splurge. We can always find ways to save money throughout the year. This South America trip is a great example of spending money on bucket list adventures but at the same time, we will not be able to do it all.
Carrie recomennded on a prior video Travelspend. I used the free version on our last trip and loved it. I believe she said that she then puts the numbers into a spreadsheet. The free version of this only allows one country at a time but there is a multitrip paid version. HTH!
Curious how have you used the "newer tool"? Their site says it currently only shows deals (for purchase or "cash") from US/Canada cities. Have you been able to use it while outside the US? I know you don't generally collect points, so I wouldn't think you would benefit from those deals. Are you using the free Limited version? If so, have you found the limits...limiting? Thx
Thanks to you both. I would be interested in how to find those refundable rentals. I'm also a traveler that goes with the flow, but I love to cook, and have problems getting access to a functioning kitchen in my budget (solo traveler).
We use the filter on the site to make sure that we are searching for refundable rentals. We are finding that going with the flow is overall, less stressful. Planning out months in advance has become more like work. 😁
If you have not done this already, it would be great if you could give some clues as to how you invested to afford your full-time travel. I know you are not investment advisors and can't give investment advice, but I'm sure a lot of people would like to anecdotally hear how others have done it and how they feel about it. For example, have you fully invested in index funds to get the best returns, or do you have a percentage in bonds in case of the occasional severe downturn in the stock market, do you have an investment planner, does he/she think you are crazy, etc? What are your plans if the market has a severe downturn. Personally, I'm getting close to retirement age and would love to full time travel for a few years and am considering how it would work with my personal situation. I love watching your channel, it's great content!
I watch so much of your videos, some how IRL I became the expert in budget travel advisor using your ideas 😂. My friends rolled their eyes and challenged me to take my own advice, they saw the BS right through me 😂
Thanks for going over this all. 😊 You've talked about repositioning cruises 🛳 before. Question; Going west to South East Asia on a 21 day plus cruise may cover food, transportation, and accommodation for almost a month. Would it still be worth it if you're only traveling for the 4 months blocks? ( Going home 3 times a year) Did someone say....COOK BOOK 📖 😊😮 I'll buy that for $1.99 😉😁 Since I'm not able to dance Techno as much as my younger days. Raves have been sadly dropped off our lists of things to do.😢 Though a trip to Mongolia to learn how to do "Mongolian Throat Singing " 🎶 🎵 Would be fun.😊 Is Mongolia on your list of places to visit? 🤔👍
If you break down the cost of a cruise and what our expenses would be including airfare it is still an extra expense, but we would consider it once a year and balance out the cost in other ways. Mongolia is not on our list yet!! 🤣🤣
Yes, we do have an affiliation with them. If you do decide to use their service through our link we do get a small commission at no cost to you. We really love the service they offer and have found some great deals.
@BrianandCarrie thanks. I got their emails for years. I had a situation in my line of work with paid affiliations and full disclosure and transparency and I know you said you don't do sponsorship on the channel (and I was ..why not...get some cash..you deserve it) so wanted to know for sure. Appreciate you two and happy to support you in the best way we can

Wow you guys spend $80,000 a year traveling full time?! I, too, wish I could win the lottery. Sounds divine!
You can subtract what they would be spending at home and not traveling. Sometimes years of hard work pays off.
This sounds like an amazing year!! Enjoy and safe travels!!! 😊
@@Angela-ne9cyI wish! In fact, we have far less than many of our friends. Here’s the thing. We are 71 and 76 and saved while working for over 40 years each.

That is amazing! And inspirational. I’m working toward the same goals and your breakdown sounds realistic. Cheers to your continued adventures!
You guys are looking great by the way, very fit and healthy glow! Full time travel is clearly working for you 😁
Thank you!!! 😁
Love the humor about the cookbook, Brian!
😁
We try to tell family and friends that "we are living not vacationing"
So yes, during the month or more stay...we often have down days just doing laundry, cleaning our accommodation......hanging at the pool....
Safe travels and see you soon,

This was a really great video! Thanks so much for sharing.
You are so welcome! Thank you so much for watching, Michael!
I loved the part where Brian said Carrie is writing a cookbook (199.99) and Carrie is like NO WAY! “that’s not even a thing” - love you guys!!!
😁❤️
I had a good laugh when they did that.
I think 100 % of longterm followers would be disappointed if he didn't make a minimum of one per video
C n B,
Happy new year.
Thank you for the inputs and advices.
May this new year bring you newer horizons, prosperity and happiness. HAPPY TRAVELS.
Thank you, so much and Happy New Year!!

Also. What do you use to track expenses? Is it a program that automatically downloads your credit card transactions?
She loves my sense of humor! 🤣 Most of the time. 🙂 We use the free version of the app called Travelspend.
@@BrianandCarrie Thank you. I'll check it out. I travel for business and am looking for a better way to track expenditures.

Hi! Would you consider doing a cooking video? Ideas for meals while traveling?
We may add something like this to "a day in the life" video coming out later this year! 😁
I am waiting for Carrie’s cook book to come out with the famous stir fry for the super-cheap price of $199.99!! 😉
🤣
You budget $1,300 per person each, plus $3,000 for flights? Very inspirational !

@BrianandCarrie thank you!!
Hi you two hope all is well, we have arrived in Antalya and were wondering which grocery store was your favorite
Hi! We loved the one located in the mall, if your in that area. It was so nice and prices were comparable to the other one nearby. Enjoy Antalya ❤️
@BrianandCarrie what is the name of the dental group you used and were you happy with the results
Here is the video that we did about it.
th-cam.com/video/gNDb4SxNeWo/w-d-xo.html
Just curious; what camera Nd microphone are you using to record these TH-cam videos?
We use the Canon M50 and Dji Mini for the mics. When we are outside shooting, we use Gopro 11 with the same mics.
Hi! What platform/app/program do you use to track your expenses ? Thank you
We use the free version of the Travelspend app.
So how much would one need for full-time travel as a minimum? Can it be done for 50k per year for 2 people?
Yes, we do monthly cost videos and just released our expenses for 2024 video last week. We give our full cost breakdown.
Hot damn Sam I can’t wait for the Recipes on The Road cookbook by Carrie andddd for Brian to come out with an app we can buy to find all the dope haircut spots across the globe!!!

Still hoping to see you in Argentina. A money tip for you: don’t use the atms! Set up an account in Western Union, send money to yourself and pick it up at a WU office. Your money will go the furthest this way. Credit cards are not too bad. Changing U.S. cash to Argentine pesos isn’t too bad either. Just NO to ATMs!
Thank you for the tip!!! 😁
If you come in below your budget you weren’t resetting your watch enough to two thirsty… it happens in every time zone! 😂
Very true, Jeff!!!
Nice video and great advice. I have been following you guys since the start and have witnessed how you have evolved and changed things up. Being flexible and not booking things too far out is huge, as is pivoting if need be. I also agree about organized trips. Personally, I hate them and want to do my own thing. I have visited dozens of castles, and truth be told, they are all the same, on a hill and cold. I am very interested in your take of Argentinian Malbec and Chillaen Pinot Noir and the food.

Agreed!! We have had the Malbec but yet to have the PN. The beef has been amazing!!!
Hi to both. At the 10:00 mark, I think that it would be a shame to travel as far as you do, and then sit in a nice rental without doing the well known sights.

Thanks, Dave.
