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!


Getting Started

Where to go, how to save, first steps to begin budget traveling.

Travel Tips

Packing, basic do's and don'ts, ways to not waste money.

Favorite Spots

Looking for destination ideas? Here are a few goodies.

Countries

Details by country. Only the places I've been to so far though!

And then there is the most dangerous risk of all — the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later.

Some of My Favorite Travel Gear

Sea to Summit Aeros Ultralight Traveller Inflatable Neck Pillow

Sea to Summit Aeros Ultralight Traveller Inflatable Neck Pillow

This pillow packs down to almost nothing (2 x 2.75 inches) and weighs just 2.4 ounces! It blows up on only 3 breaths, and has a good design as far as being slim in the back and it snaps together in the front. Unfortunately, it doesn't last as long as it should for the price, but I still love it! (and the Eagle Creek pillow ) It's a single piece with glued seams.

Sea to Summit Trek and Travel Laundry Wash

Sea to Summit Trek and Travel Laundry Wash

This stuff is concentrated and biodegradable laundry detergent! Budget travelers know we (almost all) do our laundry in the hotel sink. Having some of this along makes it easier, plus since it's biodegradable, you have the option to wash in a stream or where you might not want your soap running into nature.

Wet Go Green Mini Detangler Brush

Wet Go Green Mini Detangler Brush

I keep it pretty simple but I do have my preference of these inexpensive purse-sized brushes. I actually didn't have high hopes for this one because of its flimsy bristles and because the larger brushes I bought broke immediately, but it's great and gets through my long curly hair no problem!

Keep an Open Mind

Budget travel does not mean sleeping in dorm bunkbeds and partying all night (unless you want it to of course).

Packing Light

How on earth do you pack for a long journey in one small bag? Oh it's fun!

Let's Talk Cost

You can spend as much or as little as you want. My actual travel costs are here.
