I [25F] am traveling with my bfs [26] family, as my first international trip. We are in Nicaragua which is beautiful, but very different. Its hot, humid, new language for me, etc.

Right before going on this trip with about 12- 14 hours of traveling I had a severe allergic reaction to something and have been on like 4 different meds since two days before the trip which was exhausting and stressful with in itself. I communicated I might take things slowly the first day or two of traveling but unfortunately that didn’t really happen. They wanted to explore the city almost right after landing when I got barely any sleep. The next day was a 13 hour sight seeing/excursions day, I am only on day 3 of this but exhausted because I haven’t been able to sleep and dreading another 12 hour day. I feel like even mentioning staying at the hotel for a couple hours to chill during the day would disgust them i just always get the vibe they are judging me for not being as excited or wanting to be out all day

On top of this, I find the mother is domineering and decides to do what she wants to do and we follow. The first hotel we got to she told us we got the king sized bed originally because my bf is a tall guy, but right when we arrived she decided she liked the king sized room and took our room to give us a full sized bed and room thats more for one person. When we made a comment that it was hard to sleep in our room because of the bed size she started saying that a different couple with a room similar to ours had the best room because they have wood tiles even though she pretty clearly gave herself the best/biggest room and bed despite being one person. Its always stuff like this with her

On top of this I already have migraines so I can’t lie about having headaches because I likely will actually have a couple during the trip. This sounds horrible but I am almost looking forward to those days just so i can stay at home and rest. Has anybody gone through similar?

I am currently in this dilemma as a female in early 20s, along with my partner. We make a pretty comfortable income together but we are deciding how much we want to spend on lifestyle/experience upgrades vs. savings. This is also a bigger decision because housing in our area is very expensive. We could live decently comfortably and have enough saved to be millionaires in our mid/late thirties, or we could make upgrades soon like traveling and getting a nicer place but will have not as much to save. It’s hard to decide what is the more fulfilling vs. smarter decision. A part of me is really excited to save such a large amount of money that could become passive income for the rest of our lives but I wonder if its worth letting go some experiences or upgrades in our 20s/30s.

PSA I am aware this is a very privileged situation to be in, but I wonder if people have the same dilemmas

I love Honda Fits. It’s what I learned to drive and I just feel so comfortable in the car. I found a 2020 fit with no issues/accidents but 100k miles, but in my budget range. I don’t drive much and have a pretty short commute, is this a good choice I am hoping it would last until 200k miles and get me through graduate school? I see some other cars with a little lest milage, but the reliability of the fit seems to cancel it out! Edit: I found a 2016 with half the milage for the same price and went with that! But even so, both were a great catch
