You can also live in a tent and get by on scraps from McDonald’s trash bins. Travel can be cheap or can be more costly depending on how you like to traveling. Cheap and expensive are relative terms. For me $330 a night in a four seasons in Marrakech was very reasonable because the room normally is 700 a night. $653 for a junior suite in the four seasons in Buenos Aires is absolutely not cheap but worth every penny. I live in a nice home 48 weeks out of the year. I want to be impressed when I travel and have luxury accommodation. If I had to stay in a hostel or 3 star even if it were free I would stay home. I’m not travel 5000 miles to stay in a crappy room.
