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!

Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.

Foot Hammock For Airplane

Foot Hammock For Airplane

Let me tell you, they are a game changer for me! They make the flight so much more conformable. There is some controversy over these as to whether or not they bother the person in front of you (they don't if you use them properly) or if they are allowed (I have never had an issue). The ones that are more compact don't have a solid bottom so your feet slide to the middle. Decide which is more important to you.

Pacsafe Retractasafe 250 Cable Lock

This comes in handy from time to time. Sometimes you need to supply your own lock at a hostel or you want to lock your bag to a pole while sleeping on an overnight train, at an airport, or leaving your luggage at a hotel for a few days.

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!

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