You guys can afford to travel?

A disproportionately high amount of lemmy users is older and in tech, so probably doing better than average.

For me, it's living in Europe. I can get a train ticket to Paris and back plus a few night in a cheap hotel for 2 days wage. Less for Prague, Vienna, and a lot of other cities.

I'm genuinely extremely jealous of the vastly superior rail network in Europe. The only option for my area is car :^(

Cross border rail is a major PITA though. Ultra cheap airfares is what is moving people across Europe for peanuts.

I refuse to use planes for inner European journeys. And from where I am right now, I have direct trains to Zurich, Vienna, Prague, Verona, Rome, Paris, Berlin etc.

That is very nice! My cross border options are not what they could be

For my wife and me, we get our travel in via taking advantage of our region's excellent network of state and national parks and campsites. The ones with hot water showers. Not making that mistake again.

yes, and we will complain to you that we can't do more expensive and frequent trips.

i travel to the end of the driveway every day. i'm that rich.

[–] Zidane@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Look at this guy, he has a driveway!!!

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I never said it was my driveway (I just implied that) it's just the community driveway maybe

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I visit my family sometimes. Does that count?
