  • How to travel with friends on different budgets | Taboo money chats with Alex Hourigan, Two Broke Chicks
    Jul 1 2024

    We've all been there... When the vacay with your besties finally makes it out of the group chat, only to find that tensions are rising because you're all on different pages about money... Whether it be the friend that always wants to split the bill evenly despite consistently ordering the most expensive items, or the one that's eating everyone's leftovers but not ordering a meal for themselves. Each of these situations can be avoided (and many more in between) by having a simple conversation before you jet set off into the Euro sunset.

    On today's episode, Maddy and Sophie chat to Alex Hourigan from Two Broke Chicks about their travel money saving hacks, travel story disasters, and how to avoid them.

    And if you'd like to hear more from Alex, she and her co-host Sal just published their first book! You can buy Finding Your People: The ultimate guide to friendship here.

    But the conversation doesn't end here... We want your thoughts!
