Berlin! A place 1000s of km away, well, you can fly to get here. Travelling is always on our agenda, and so are our plans to budget it so we can do a trip to any country besides our country itself. There are millions to travel abroad every year to explore a place.
Travelling outside our own hometown and country actually helps us expand our mindset globally. It is something we do to learn, explore, and immerse ourselves in other cultures and traditions. Travelling abroad is another ball game from travelling within our country.
It does need a lot of planning, researching, and understanding what and where we wish to go.
Financially, being sane is most important, so you manage yourself in another currency. Please use the weather status to decide what to pack and take.
