Traveling has a tendency to become a lot more expensive than travelers anticipate it to be. As much as you think you know what you’re getting yourself into, it’s hard to be certain of all of the small variables. Did you assume a restaurant meal would be closer to $8, only to find out it’s closer to $12? It’s happened to all of us, and it upsets our plans. Managing money while you travel makes emergency situations less likely to happen, and removes a lot of stress from your trip.
