Oddly, it might have been easier ~10 years ago than now. I remember reading stories at the time about how people would travel around the US or Europe on only Bitcoin (mostly journalists as a "stunt," but there were some people who committed to that lifestyle).
Back in the day I remember you could use Gyft to get gift cards for BTC. You would also see the occasional restaurant or bar that accepted it.
