The title of this post is one of the most common questions we are asked by friends and family. I think this is mostly because they are confused about how we can afford to go to Ireland once every year or so for two weeks at a time. The real answer to that is that I (Ryan) am a miles and points nerd, but that is a topic for another post. You are probably here to see how much you should budget for your trip. The easiest way to do that is to tell you how much we spent on one of our last trips.
