Although the title of this post is somewhat ambiguous, I'm curious to know if anyone here is struggling with the desire to travel and see the world while you're still physically able, yet simultaneously worrying whether you're putting away enough money for FIRE?

I'd be inclined to travel cheaply (i.e. youth hostels and other cheap accommodations) just for the ability to see as much of the world as possible. From my limited travel experience abroad, there's so much to see that costs nothing except the expense of getting there...
