## Travel Budget Breakdown Estimate what this trip will cost me. - Destination: [text: Where you're going, from where] - Dates or season: [text: e.g. mid-March, or peak summer] - Trip length: [dropdown: A long weekend, About a week, Two weeks, A month] - Number of travellers: [dropdown: 1, 2, 3-4, 5 or more] - Travel style: [dropdown: Backpacker / hostels, Budget but comfortable, Mid-range hotels, Boutique and nice restaurants, Luxury] - What's already paid for: [textarea: Flights booked, points used, staying with friends - anything that changes the maths] - Currency to show totals in: [text: e.g. USD, GBP, SGD] Break the budget into flights, accommodation, local transport, food, activities, and miscellaneous, with a per-day figure and a trip total. Show a lean version and a comfortable version side by side. Include the costs people routinely forget: visas, travel insurance, airport transfers, tips, baggage fees, and card foreign-transaction charges. State the assumptions behind your numbers so I can adjust them, and add a sensible contingency percentage.
