A few years ago, when flight prices were awfully expensive, I saw an Amtrak ticket from California to Washington, DC, for just $250 and snapped it up.
I stayed in a bare-bones bungalow inside Kruger National Park. It was a good value, but I'm not sure I'd do it again.

With expedition-style adventures on the rise, I was eager to go on a safari in Kruger National Park, the largest national park in South Africa.
Choosing the park was easy, but I had a tough time deciding where to stay since Kruger has a wide range of accommodations.
There are 12 main rest camps in the park alone, plus some more remote bush camps and lodges. Plus, there are private game reserves nearby that connect to Kruger and offer lodge accommodations ranging from basic to opulent.
Eventually, I settled on spending two nights at Satara Rest Camp in a bungalow in the park that cost $90 a night (not including the $25 park entrance fee each guest has to pay each day).

I quit my high-paying legal career and moved into my car. It was the best decision I ever made.
Someone once told me every life boils down to five major decisions —five moments when the direction we step dictates the path we'll travel until the next juncture. If it's true, I made one of those decisions in 2015 in the western reaches of Washington State. I was 33 years old and had just summitted Mount Rainier, the first glaciated peak I'd ever climbed and the most adventurous thing I'd ever done.
