[quote=Anonymous]Please explain the math: A beach house for max $2,000-$3,000 (less if you share, and many are available for $1,500 if you're willing to live a few blocks away from the beach) vs. $1,500 * 4 to fly the family out to Vietnam so you can all squeeze into a single $12 a night room at an inn which must have been really off the beaten path (how do you get the family to that inn, and where the heck in rural Vietnam was it?) It just doesn't compute. I love travel, and speak several languages, two of them fluently. But traveling as a single college student is very different from traveling as a family. Costs for a single person are 1/3 to 1/4 those of taking a family, plus I stayed in places as a student that you couldn't take kids to (like the red light districts in some areas - cheap, but not suitable for my family!) I'm not going to blame somebody for not being able to afford to take a whole family on vacation.[/quote]
