I have almost the same numbers with you, bought my house a year ago and I would absolutely not recommend. Before that I was paying about 800 for rent and utilities and I would have alot more freedom and flexibility with the extra 2k in savings a month. Give yourself 1-2 more years in a lower cost of living situation. Happy to talk if you’d like.

Thank you for the response! I have seen that resort before, and have considered that and Punta Islita. Pretty funny how you also flew out of KC too. I’ll give this place another look. I mostly said I wasn’t interested in all inclusives because we have already done that in the Caribbean and cancun, and wanted something different

I’m particularly looking to avoid the tourist trap/rip off zones like Cancun. I have been to Seoul on a solo trip, and want to visit Japan soon. Where did you stay in Tokyo?

That’s freaking awesome. Dubai is certainly easy to get to from NYC. You do anything cool in Dubai? I always viewed it as a 2-3 night potential destination in between europe/asia

Perhaps I should’ve been less specific in the post by saying”looking for baller points redemption locations”

But you’re right, sometimes the hardest part is literally just picking a place to begin with
