then again, food, incidentals from hotels, shows, entertainment, transportation is not free...
there is no such thing as free really...
Well, if one wants to get technical about it... sure, nothing is free, period. If you don't travel, you'll always save a bunch. To me, however, the ability to cut air travel and accommodations out of the equation makes my trip as close to free as humanly possible. Is it 100% free? Of course not! But I'll take it!
