Once you have your dream destination in mind, the next step to achieving it is to break down the numbers.
That means getting very specific, the costs of food, transport, accommodation, sight seeing, etc. all need accounting for. At the same time you need to bear in mind seasonal variations, a flight to Paris can cost dramatically more or less at different times of the year.
It's important to shed your debts too before you start saving for a holiday to make your trip a more affordable and enjoyable one.

May 15, 2013The first place I'll start my research at is To check on flights. Including myself, I've a family of 4 and have to multiply all costs by 4. We were thinking of Thailand. Although the hotel, food and fun expenditure is doable, flight tickets are going to cost us an arm and a leg!
