Patreon Page & Spring 2019 Trip Announcement!
Here's the news you've been waiting for! Drum roll, please......
I'm going to Europe next Spring!!! I've been trying to find a good big trip to do, since I’ll have so much travel money, and there's so much I want to see and do in Europe, so why not! For the last month or two I've been looking into what a trip to Europe looks like and what I want it to look like for me: looking into flights, where to stay that's cheap, museums and restaurants I should visit, things like that. Right now it’s looking to cost me about $2,000 for all of my flights and trains, travel insurance, phone plan, and where I’ll be staying and eating.
I didn’t include museums and restaurants in that total because for one thing I haven’t decided on those places per city yet, and for another I will be using this site/community called WorkAway to find places where I will get pretty much free lodging and meals in exchange for some services (e.g. childcare, gardening, general house maintenance, etc.), generally working/volunteering for four hours a day, four to five days a week. Yay saving money! Especially since finding a hotel or Air BnB to stay at can be pretty spendy, and hostels don’t have a ton of privacy.
I’m really glad that I found WorkAway. It’ll give me a chance to experience actual day to day life in different European cities and countries and give me a taste of what it’s like to be a part of different cultures. It will also be nice because all of the places I want to stay are with families, so I will never really be alone during my travels except for when I’m getting from one city to the next.
Second part of this post: Patreon! I’ve launched my own Patreon page to get just a little more funding for my Europe trip. My page is https://www.patreon.com/theadventuress. I don’t have a goal in mind, since I’ll still have a good amount of money in the bank when I actually leave for Europe after paying for flights and stuff, so I’ll take whatever I can get. If you are one of my patrons you’ll also get access to extra little posts/details about my trip, as well as different rewards depending on how much you pledge to give me each month for as many months as you want to until June 2019. For example, $10 a month gets you a postcard or two, and the more you pledge to give, the more perks there are!
So yeah! Big news, unveiled! Stay tuned for whatever happens next. :)
