    Sure. Living in Germany I fly at least once a year to a not so far destination for vacation. Mostly flights with a duration around the 2 hour mark within Europe that cost around 400 Euros (flight home being included)

    Since I’m in Bavaria I can hop into my car and be in Austria or northern Italy in a few hours. I could take the bus to Prague or a train to Paris and have done all that in the past. (Although not quite as often as I want to)

    Trips to other cities within Germany by train are even easier and cheaper thanks to the Germany Train ticket. Most expensive is often the accommodation.

    However I wasn’t outside of Europe for quite some time and I‘d have to save up for quite some time if would want to go to another continent.
