The New Adventure - on a Budget: A Trip to Paris! {Post #1}

Here it is!  A new series.  The very first post. 

Last Saturday I had a brilliant idea...here goes:

As you know I love going on vacation.  Love it.  Really, seriously I do.  Who doesn't, right?  Anyhow, I would love to go back to Europe.  Rome, Barcelona, and Marseilles.  Wait, how about Paris...  Yes!  I haven't been there yet! And the best part Bernie agreed that he would love to go as well.  However, ...  Yes, "however..."  We have a teeny, tiny, itty, bitty, small problem:  money.  Yes, money.  Going on vacation by any means is not cheap.  Especially, going to Europe.  Ah-hem.  However, I am determined to say that it can AND will be done on a budget!  Oh yes it will.  I'll show you how.

You see, that is the whole purpose of this series.  To kick-it off I'm planning a trip to Paris.  Yes, truly a real, honest-to-goodness trip.  But, at this point it is "hypothetical" because it doesn't simple fit in the budget.  The budget for this trip is $1,000-$1,500, period.  I also have it on good authority that if I stay within the budget I'll be going to Paris!  YES!

I think you have a pretty good idea of what to expect from this series.  I'm looking forward to the adventure on a budget, aren't you?

Have a great day!  Until next time.
