Hey guys!
I just wanted to let you guys know that it is not hard at all to spend less than $1 a mile on a thru. I just finished on the 7th and I kept a record of every penny that I spent. I even bought quite a few burgers, beers, smokes and hostel stays. Even 2 nights in hotels!
I will be making a youtube video outlining my spending in more detail and showing where I kept the budget tight and where I spent more.
Before leaving for my hike I couldn't find any good information on budgeting, so I decided I will make some. I was also told it would be nearly impossible to spend less than $4000..... Easy peasy hahaha.
I hope I will be able to help out future hikers on knowing what they could budget, or should budget or to know where to save up more.
Thanks! I'll post a link to my video in a few weeks when it's up.
