These days everyone is looking for ways to save money.  Scrimp here, save there, etc.  Cable television, eating at restaurants, shopping, vacations… what do you cut down on and what do you do away with?

Cable television is replaceable by watching via the internet.  Restaurant visits are replaceable by cooking at home.  Even if you don’t know how to cook it is easy to find fast and inexpensive recipes online.  Shopping can be delayed because there will always be sales and bargains another time.

But vacations are harder to replace.  If you do away with them, stress and burnout can creep up on you.  You can be a hard worker, but the human body occasionally needs to get away from the normal routine.  There are ways to recharge your batteries on vacation without breaking your budget.

You could arrange your own vacation, paying your own way for gas, accommodations, possible rental vehicle, guides, meals, entertainment, etc.  If you have some friends to go with, then you can split costs.  But they still add up.  And maybe your friends aren’t into the active outdoors/camping thing- then the costs really adds up.

Time is another consideration.  Like most people, you are probably traveling on a limited time frame.  How do you know which destinations are worthwhile and which you can skip?  What trails to hike, where to eat, accommodations, driving directions, etc.  Valuable time could be lost by not knowing an area.
