You would have thought that rising inflation and increased cost of living might've stopped a lot of Kiwis from traveling to see the world. But it hasn't! In fact, according to Intrepid Travel, 85% of Kiwis are planning to travel in the next year. 

And among those 85% is us! With our own upcoming holidays, we'd highlight a few key money mistakes that you can avoid when planning your next holiday. 

In this episode, we cover:

• How to save money on foreign exchange fees. 
• Why your cheap phone plan in NZ will not be cheap when you go overseas. 
•  A few horror stories where insurance can literally save your life. 
• Why booking plane tickets through third parties can backfire.
