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!

Master Backpack Clip Lock

Master Backpack Clip Lock

I don't know why the best type of lock is the least seldom sold out there in travel-land. I find that the type of lock that is sort of like a carabiner is best because you can easily leave it clipped onto your zipper pull even when it's unlocked. I really only even lock my locks some of the time and the rest of the time they hang on my zipper pull as a deterrent - the thieves don't know if it's locked or not. Definitely always use a combination lock. The sleeker version seems to have gone away but these models do the trick.

Bali Comfort Revolution EasyLite Bra

Bali Comfort Revolution EasyLite Bra

This is the next "comfy pull over wear all day" bra I'm going to try. Great on price and reviews this seems similar to the ones I already love (also listed on my site). Moisture wicking, it should dry in a flash. Bali bras are a good brand so I think these are safe bet. These bras are not big on support and only last so long since they are glued, not sewn.

Travelon RFID Blocking Passport Case

Travelon RFID Blocking Passport Case

I became obsessed with finding the perfect minimalist passport holder doesn't cost a fortune. I love this one! It doesn't include a pin like the passport wallet, but it is nice and slim. Be sure to get the correct model that I have posted here with the credit cards on one side and passport slot on the other.

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.
