It would have been a typical lazy Sunday afternoon but today, you are in an excited and animated discussion with friends and family on which is the best place to visit. There are as many different opinions as there are participants in the conversation. At the end of it all, you have so many ideas and cannot wait to plan your next vacation. It all looks great until you begin to calculate the financial cost. Then, the excitement threatens to quickly disappear! Does this sound familiar?  Contrary to popular belief, the best travel destinations are not necessarily the most expensive. Many times, the amount of fun you have while on vacation depends on you and not the destination.
