Also, I like the alliteration of saying “Our Balkan Budget” 🙂 With the exceptions of the touristy areas of Croatia, all of these countries were really […]

Picking the Perfect Airbnb

September 18, 2015 By Lauren Leave a Comment

Airbnb is a huge part of how Chris and I are able to afford to travel for one year around the world (and stay sane by feeling like we have a home away from home while doing it). But I noticed when talking about Airbnb to friends and family back home, many are apprehensive about […]
