Are you guys planning any trips/travel this year?
China. Bit of medical tourism (nothing serious, just testing). And a bit of regular tourism. Trying to iron out the dates right now, actually.
I like it. I just rebalanced into emerging markets earlier this month!

I might leave my house / property.

I do out of the house every 2 days to dump the contents of all the peanut butter urine jars into a barrel.

It comes from the frugal mindset. Why waste / throw out what has value.
I feel cheated when I'm out and don't get to capture it!
