Hotel Value for Frequent Guests

My general rule of thumb is daily travel expenses in eastern European countries like Poland, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria will be about $20 to $30 per person, excluding lodging. Places like Rome, Amsterdam, Paris, London, Barcelona will be about $40 to $60 per day with countries like Denmark, Iceland, Norway and…
Prague is a tourist destination I fell in love with again in 2017. The combination of low priced hotels, inexpensive dining and bars, and beautiful architecture and outdoor spaces over an extensive area of the city makes Prague an easy place to get around and live inexpensively. Over the past year I traveled to Prague…
Some disparate thoughts have developed in my mind after 9 days traveling around Czechia hanging out in Prague, Pilsen and Brno. Despite having my wallet stolen in the first 30 minutes after arriving at Prague Airport, I have enjoyed our time here. English is widely spoken among younger people and virtually everyone involved with tourists…
On my first day in Reykjavik, Iceland, it became obvious to me that I was in the second most expensive place I have ever visited. Oslo, Norway in 2013 was probably more expensive, before their currency meltdown of 2015. At that time in Norway, the cost of a Big Mac was over $19 USD. The…
In five weeks I am headed to Europe with a cart full of hotel reservations in Switzerland and Italy, but a strong desire to scrap the whole Italian/Swiss alps vacation I planned and head to Slovakia. Hard to imagine beer is 35% cheaper on average in northern Slovakia than Krakow, Poland where I was paying…
When the surveys come out stating people in Denmark are the happiest in the world, a walk around Copenhagen in summer convinces me most people in this Scandinavian capital city are enjoying life. This city is cool, quite laid back and a different Scandinavian experience than a tourist finds in Oslo, Norway or Stockholm, Sweden.…
Hard to believe the numbers of the electronic digital scale in my Krakow, Poland hotel bathroom this morning showing my weight has dropped 0.6 kg / 1.3 pounds since arriving almost 72 hours ago. This weight loss is after consuming some 30 beers and six restaurant full hot meals in Europe’s best travel bargain. Krakow…
I have a tourist fascination for the price of food and beer in different places I travel. Perhaps that is because I know how to find cheap airline tickets and hotel rooms, so food is the primary variable in the cost of my travels. Ground transportation is the other variable expense and that really adds…
Copenhagen is a port city on the large island of Zealand in eastern Denmark with water present all around. This post starts from near Langelinie Pier in the north part of Copenhagen, a quay developed in the late 19th century to handle larger ocean going vessels of the time. This area is where cruise ships…
One of my pleasant finds is food is quite affordable in France compared to my travels these past few months to London and the Scandinavian countries. Of course, I am primarily referring to grocery store food prices. I like to travel and experience places and keeping to my regular diet of grocery store food helps…
