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!

Without uncertainty and the unknown, life is just a stale repetition of outworn memories.

Sonicare Philips One Rechargeable Toothbrush

Sonicare Philips One Rechargeable Toothbrush

I've researched the heck out of these and this is my 2nd place (1st is Quip ). It's small and has decent reviews and features. The battery version lasts 3 months on a charge so you might not want to both with carrying the proprietary cord.

Samsonite Underseat Carry-On Spinner W/ USB Port

Samsonite Underseat Carry-On Spinner W/ USB Port

I basically own this same spinner bag in a two-wheel version and it's amazing! You'll love having an under-seater. This will fit as a personal item on most airlines. These low profile spinner wheels take up less space than others, leaving more room to pack everything you need.

Tumi Luggage Lock

Tumi Luggage Lock

Because of the price I'm almost putting these on here as a joke, but they really are the perfect lock. Why did everyone stop making these? You only want clip locks just like this, trust me! You can keep them clipped on your luggage even when they're unlocked. You don't set them down while you're getting into your bag, you can leave them on as a deterrent, great for your daypack, etc.

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.
