The irony that traveling on less than $1000 a month is more fun than luxury travel

The irony is that traveling on <$1000/mo is way more fun than >$10,000/mo

Luxury travel is extremely boring, comfortable, not challenging, sycophantic (yes sir)

Travel on a shoestring budget you get inventive, are forced to meet locals just to survive and get around, have to hitchhike etc

I like to combine cheap and luxury travel which keeps my brain from decaying and the contrast actually lets you enjoy both
