One thing is if you won a lottery (or rich uncle just left you inheritance of multiple millions of $) and you can travel for four month staying at 5* hotels. Another thing is carry your tent with you and eat at Subway and street food all the time.
I'm with you. An average 2 week holiday for my husband and myself if we are not living the high life is $15,000.
I recall being in Phuket talking to a couple in a bar. They were saying how cheap their holiday was and I later said to my husband "what are we doing wrong" when ours cost 10 times as much. (I guess one reason is we don't want to fly Air Buckalow in seat 77G
