Vacations are very important. "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" would hold true irrespective of any condition. After doing a lot of hard work and saving money, one deserves to have a holiday. However, holidays are not all about spending all the saved money. It is not necessary to be broke after a holiday. Holidays are meant to rejuvenate you and make you feel fresh. But if you spend all your money on holiday, you'd feel stressed about how you'd make things work after a holiday. Holidays thus must not empty your bank account, it must empty just your stress account. Travelling can be done in a frugal way. You can avoid the peak season and go in the offseason when the tickets are cheap. Also, you can rent villas rather than living in a hotel room. Costa Rica vacation rentals can be found at Carmelita Villas at an affordable price.
They have four villas which are fully furnished and air-conditioned villas. As you travel in off season, you will get everything at a lesser price than the peak season prices. Also, you can curtail your expenses before going on the trip. "A penny saved is a penny earned". Avoid takeouts and eat food which is made at home. This would have an effect on your health as well as on your pocket as homemade food is healthy for your body and it saves money also. Avoid unwanted expenses like cable, coffee from the store, gym membership (where you hardly go) etc. It might be a hard decision but think about the advantages that you'd get. Peace of mind, relief from the anxiety that you have because you wanted to visit a certain place, getting to know new people, getting experiences are some of the advantages of a vacation.
