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!

Some of My Favorite Travel Gear

WETCAT Turkish Towel

WETCAT Turkish Towel

Absorbent, soft, easy to pack, and comes in nice colors. ;) They're large, too, unlike some expensive high-tech travel towels. Great for the beach!

Washcloth

Washcloth

A recent addition to my travel gear, I use this mostly in hot climates as a, well, a sweat rag. That sounds kind of gross but it's so nice to able to wipe the sweat off your forehead when you're out and about. It's also handy if there are no napkins at the roadside stand where you're grabbing lunch. It's so small that I just keep it in my purse.

32 Degrees Cool T-shirt

32 Degrees Cool T-shirt

You can get a 2-pack of these at Costco for $16! They're not quite cooling as the Columbia shirts, but for the price they are fitted and cute and have done well in the heat keeping me dry and smell-free. They are light and thin but not too thin, dry fast and are great for an inexpensive travel tee.

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.
