A mom trying to help other families stretch their vacation dollars into more adventures together. Travel is not my job. We are just an average family trying to get away a few times a year. Whether that's close to home or farther away, I'll show you the places we save money and where we're more likely to splurge a little.
Tips on how our family toured around Paris for less as part of our European summer adventure. Try staying at a value hotel in a district farther from central Paris. Grab some quick lunches at a grocery store and splurge on bigger dinners. Use the metro to get around then pick one or two bigger activities to splurge on.
