Does it take you along time to be able to save to go somewhere?

I live alone and up to now, I have been able to go for a vacation every year. But where I go depends a lot on how much money I`m able to save. I have several means of saving a little everywhere, but it seems that now I will have to find other ways as I have spent too much money due to beingf ill last year.

yes its so hard to save and thats my problem i want to travel and saving for my travel took me 6 months to 1 year i thought after i finished my degree i can do wat i want but living in my country its so hard to save have been in Malaysia just ones and it took a lot of days month before i earn the money i used lol

I start traveling before I leave high school and when I turn 18 I start traveling on my own . I am in college now and though most my travel expense is taken care of by my parents . I am trying to take care of myself now but it would take me a year to travel to another country when I save , I am from the Caribbean though .

Yeah it does kind of take me a long time to go somewhere unless it is a place that isn't that far away. I live in Michigan and went to Mackinac Island with my girflriend a couple weeks ago and it cost me like three hundred dollars over all for the trip. It was a lot of fun though and it didn't really take me too long to save up that much but to make a trip out of state would cost me a pretty good deal of money and take more time. I'm trying to save up money to move right now and I've been paying my way through community college so it's been taking me quite a while to get any real savings going. But I'm coming up on my last semester so pretty soon I'll be able to get a lot of savings going. As of right now though I can't really afford any trips or extgravagant vacations but I'd like to be able to in the future. That's why I'm trying to work hard now so maybe I can have more opportunities like this in the future.

To make a trip in europe is expensive. I spent my saving money for a trip to europe in 2008 with some friend. We were doing backpacker because we're on tight budget. For some people who is rich it is easy to make a trip or travel to any country, but for some of use we have to work really hard. But everything is worth to fight for.

It took me and my boyfriend 2 years of savings just to go to Singapore, but it's a 1 month vacation with my boyfriend. :)

Typically I book my flight around six to eight months before my trip. Then in the next six to eight months I have time to save up to be able to afford my accommodation, my sightseeing entrance costs and in that country I am going to travel costs like train fares. It is possible to see London on a budget. I got given some travel vouchers so I used them and added more cash of my own. I paid for a week in a bungalow in Cornwall at a holiday camp. My main expense was petrol as I was driving for our days out to the different places. I found it very expensive to visit the Paradise Park. The gardens were cheap to visit. The bungalow was great for self catering.

Well, it depends on how far I want to go and for how long. But I take 3 to 4 trips abroad each year, so I guess by most people's standards the answer would have to be no. I guess I am lucky that way, but I have to say I also work really hard at making that happen, so it's not only luck in my case.

Depends on where we're going. Usually, out of the country trips are more expensive. Of course it would take months of planning just to check which flight is the most economical, checking out lodgings and the itinerary. It took me a year to save enough for my first trip in another Asian country. Now that I'm married and we are a two-income generating family, the saving time shortens for the same destination. The farther the destination, the longer the saving and planning it entails.
