World Travel on a Budget
for any age
Spend Less, Experience More


Travel is my passion and I'd love to inspire you to budget travel on as little as $30/day, lend a few travel tips, share some real stories, and give useful information on the places I've been; the type of information that I search for before I travel to a place.


You don't have to be rich to see the world! You just need to shift your mindset from the typical western "vacation", adopt a new travel attitude, and you won't believe the people and places you can experience at a fraction of the cost.


Travel is for anyone with a sense of adventure, even a vegetarian woman traveling alone in her 50s. ;)
I still have so much more to write from my past travels!


Travel is about the gorgeous feeling of teetering in the unknown.

The Friendly Swede  Partial Zip Travel Sheet

The Friendly Swede Partial Zip Travel Sheet

This travel sheet comes in polyester (ultralight) or microfiber depending on what type of feel you want. It DOES NOT fit my criteria of having an all-around zipper, but it does have a full-length zipper. 41" wide, 47" wide XL
CON: The pillow pocket is in front. Not full zip.
PRO: Zips from inside or outside of the bag. It gets good reviews, comes in regular or XL, packs down pretty small, and weighs in at only 9.17oz. Good for an inexpensive travel sheet.

Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Canceling Headphones

Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Canceling Headphones

Wow - these are great over-ear headphones! You might think that Bose Quiet Comfort are? Yes, they are awesome, but these are incredible. 30 hour battery life. The newer model is even better, but these are outstanding.

Sorel Kinetic Impact Y Strap Sandals

Sorel Kinetic Impact Y Strap Sandals

After seeing these recommended in my travel groups, I gave them a try. Walked all over the cobblestones of Rome, Italy in these and they remained comfortably! Love them. Dress them up or down.
