Travel Memories on a Budget

You really need to think less and do more. Life is too short not to. Childhood is too short not to ❤️ 🏨 Stop worrying about booking that perfect expensive hotel, find a cheap apartment instead. You need a roof over your head, that is all. ❄️ Stop worrying about getting expensive snow clothes - Aldi, Lidl and vinted are perfect for finding cheap options. Everything we had was second hand or from Aldi/Lidl. We travelled with hand luggage and didn’t use everything we took. You don’t need much. ⛄️ Stop worrying about the £100+ excursions. Your kids won’t care if you don’t do a 3 hour guided husky ride that sets you back £600. Head to Santa Claus village, see Santa for free, find a sledge, do a short reindeer or husky ride (kids don’t want to be sat in the cold for a long time). Feed the reindeer at the elves farmyard. There’s lots you can do without spending a fortune. They’ll remember being there, having a great time, it being magical - and that’s it. ☕️ Don’t spend €5 a time on hot chocolates, take a flask and make your own. Pack sandwiches instead of spending €100+ eating out. Kids much prefer sarnies by a camp fire and toasting marshmallows for desert over a fancy restaurant. Kids are simple beings, they don’t want expensive fancy things, they just want those special moments with you ❤️
