It's a lot cheaper than you'd probably realize

International travel has gotten a lot more expensive over the past few years. I'm literally paying double for the same flight and hotel compared to 5-6 years ago.

It’s interesting how the thread starts off by expanding your worldview and then ignores the fact that international travel is often a luxury for the well off.

It's interesting how many people who engage in expensive luxury travel are unaware of the cheaper world of hostels, etc. exist.

They belong to a privileged class. They might be able to afford vastly more expensive luxuries like a roof over their head that belongs to them and healthcare too.
