When getting ready for a trip, it's important to think about money. You'll need to figure out how much you need and if you should save some extra just in case. We also talk about using your money wisely to make it go further. Then there's tires—what kind do you use and why? We share tips for making them last longer. Lastly, we discuss dealing with tough situations while camping, like annoying neighbors, and how to handle them calmly.
