How do these people afford it / how did they afford it? Although you wouldn't believe it listening to these folk, traveling IS unbelievably expensive. They're honestly not rich, but they always seem to have the money for an impromptu trip to Asia or new York.
My suspicion is that it's typically only people who inherit wealth in one form or another that go traveling in any serious way.
My ex-gf was like that, but she described her year going around the world as her own "grand adventure", when in reality it was a extremely special gift from her parents.”
