How we eat when we travel

Travel can be tough to eat on a reasonable budget. This is what we eat in a day. Our kids don't get a special menu, they eat what we do and always have.

Breakfast: Fried egg, sausage, mango

Lunch: Sandwich with butter, spanish ham and gouda, dry roasted peanuts and an apple

snack: ice cream bars, we were at the beach and needed a treat

Dinner: Chicken thighs, basmati rice and steamed brocoli

The entire day cost foe this food for a family of 5 was around €35. We try to always rent places with kitchens foe this reason. It allows us to control what we eat, stay healthier and make out money go further.

... Read moreTraveling with family can be challenging, especially when it comes to meal planning on a budget. Many families opt for self-catering accommodations to save money and ensure healthier meal choices. Cooking your own meals during a trip not only allows for dietary flexibility but also helps manage costs effectively. A family of five can enjoy nutritious meals without breaking the bank. For instance, starting the day with a hearty breakfast can fuel everyone's energy for a day of exploring. For lunch, simple recipes using local ingredients can provide a taste of the region. Snacks such as fruits or local treats are great for keeping everyone satisfied while on the go. Dinner can be a family affair, with everyone involved in the cooking process, making it a bonding experience. Additionally, experimenting with local cuisine at your rented accommodation can enhance the travel experience. It's also beneficial to plan meals ahead of time, taking into account food storage and cooking facilities available. This way, families can try new dishes while managing food expenses during their travels. Overall, being mindful of food choices while traveling can lead to enriching experiences that are both delicious and budget-friendly.
