Solo Travel Adventures: Safe Travel for Women, Preparing for a Trip, Overcoming Fear, Travel Tips

Have you ever been tempted to reach for your credit card to fund that dream trip, rationalizing that it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience? Join me, Cheryl Esch, as I recount the personal toll that such decisions can have on our wallets and well-being. I open up about my own battle with the desire to splurge on travel now and worry about the costs later, and the sobering reality of debt that can linger long after the suitcase is unpacked. Through heartfelt stories and an honest breakdown of numbers, I'll show you the hidden price tag that comes with paying for globetrotting adventures on borrowed money.
However, the horizon isn't all doom and gloom for us wanderlust souls. In this episode, we strategize on how to indulge in the delights of travel without the dreaded financial hangover. I talk about the liberating practice of saving for your voyages, creating a travel fund, and adopting wisdom from the FIRE community to craft a fulfilling journey that doesn't mortgage your future. For those who are all about making memories without the aftershock of bills, this conversation is your treasure map to a guilt-free getaway. So say goodbye to the shackles of debt, pack your bags, and let's embark on a journey that leaves nothing behind but footprints and cherished souvenirs.
