Good gods how can you afford to go on so many vacations? :o

Portugal was in 2019 and this years is just a 5 hour drive from where I live. The Norwegian krone (NOK) is pretty weak right now, so we decides to not go abroad this year and save money for an upcoming mortgage. I'm doing well, but we're by no means in a financial position to do multiple vacations a year ๐Ÿ˜…

Oh, 5 hours? Wow, yeah, sorry about that. I sometimes forget just how more compact everything is over in Europe compared to the US (or at least the Midwest in the US). Over here, driving for 45-60 min is pretty common for a commute. If one goes on an away-from-home vacation over here, it's usually for far longer of a distance than 5 hours' worth. (Not that I can afford that. Lol. ๐Ÿ˜…)

(Note: I just realized this may come across as making fun of you or sounding superior. Neither of these were intended if so.)
