We TOTALLY understand. As a company founded and run by travellers, we know how daunting it can be to plan and budget for a trip in a foreign country that uses a different currency.
We too were frustrated by the generic budget advice you find online, which motivated us to want to create our own budget guide and tracker that adapts to everyone's budget situation and currency.
