I frequently read of how to budget in order to travel but what about while you are traveling. Spreadsheets, apps, etc to help you keep track of the money (whether cash or in an account) while traveling. The more specific the better. I recently traveled for 40 days to Turkey and Greece and spent $6,000. My next trip I plan to go much longer and I need to do something different. Stephanie’s $10K for 3 months for all those countries is amazing!! Thanks!
