They said, “we highly suggest you get your bags and recheck.” What do…

I’m looking to save some money and WestJet offers a ticket for around 300-500$ cheaper than other airlines. Currently looking at a flight with a 2 hr layover in Calgary.

How are you affording travel and what pleasures are you prioritizing in your day to day life when you are saving for travel? I saw someone on TikTok post their “Countdown” for their travel in 2025, which included New Mexico, Tokyo, Brazil, Hawaii, NYC and something else. When someone asked her if she is rich, she said she just aggressively saves and puts all her money to travel, which made me think about IF you do throw your money at travel, do you sacrifice other thi…

Munnar worth? Is Munnar worth or is it ? To be honest, my experience in Munnar was somewhat average compared to other well-known hill stations in India, such as Ooty, Kodaikanal, and Valparai.
