I posted before about my 6 month trip with my partner who was playing a sport in Australia and now it’s nearly over!
We have 3 weeks left and want to make the most of being here before we leave. Our flights home are all booked.
I had my heart set on Fiji, it looks incredible and island hopping looks luxurious. We priced flights, all island hopping travel and accommodation as around $2800 for us both. We couldn’t find it any cheaper unless we want to do it cheaply in not very nice places.
We currently have $3000 in our account and will be earning at least $1000 more, and then some farm work on top (depending on weather).
But the other problem is, my partner doesn’t yet have a job lined up and really doesn’t want to go home with no money left over. If we book Fiji we won’t have very much left at all.
Other problem is, this doesn’t include food or activities. It’s on the very top of our budget.
Everyone keeps telling me to ‘make the most of’ my last few weeks and I don’t want to let anyone down and I also don’t really know what this means.
Our other options were other places in Australia, Tasmania or possibly New Zealand. I can’t help but feel let down by these now that I’ve looked at Fiji in detail. We’ve done most of Australia already and I can’t help but feel like NZ/Taz will be the same and I’ll regret doing these over Fiji. Am I being a bit bratty/ungrateful though?
