replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5 I think so! Right now, luxury to me is just tiny splurges (usually <$50) for convenience or comfort. I imagine as I travel more and get older, I might be able to splurge more than that. #PTTravel

@kate_frankie A5 #pttravel I think as we get older, we definitely appreciate luxury accommodation more. Getting a bad nights sleep and then exploring all day is just not as doable as it used to be.
One of Caitlin's friends in their tent on a rainy day in Algonquin. Not the best accomodation.

A5- It depends on the trip. Some vacations are meant to be nothing but luxury #pttravel #travelingsession #sundayvibes

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5: luxury doesn't change, your perception does. And as you get older, you get smarter and can't be bothered with traveling cheap :) #PTTravel

A5 I think I get more and more in the mindset of “why not, I have a job, I can do cool things occasionally”. #PTTravel

A5 My travel style has changed over the past 12 years doing solo trips. I will opt for my own room now for comfort and proper rest. I don't mind budget flights, trains or some buses though. I do a lot of free things too

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5 - Now we are paid more we get to do more things like the trip based on going to a michelin star restaurant (Mirazur in France, it was amazing!) which we could never have done before. Luxuries can be any price but we can now afford some of the more expensive ones #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5: My requirement for luxury has increased as I’ve got older. Although I’ve never been a hostel user, I would happily settle for 1 & 2 * hotels in my youth. Now I’m a 3 & 4 * minimum kinda gal - my back needs a good bed ;-) #PTTravel
