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!

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Quip Rechargeable Smart Sonic Toothbrush

Quip Rechargeable Smart Sonic Toothbrush

I've researched the heck out of these and I like this one or the battery version the best. It's small and has good reviews and features. Philips One is okay, and Suri just does not fit the bill for various reasons. You can even get a version with Bluetooth smart sync to the app!

Lewis N. Clark Original Neckrest Inflatable Pillow

Lewis N. Clark Original Neckrest Inflatable Pillow

I have never understood the giant things people tote around with them around their necks or hanging off of their luggage. Such monstrosities! This has been my favorite pillow for many years. It folds down to nothing, is pretty sturdy (I have only gone through 2 or 3 of them in 18 years) and I like the shape the best of all the pillows I've tried. Other than Sea to Summit - now I've upgraded. ;)

CHENSPRX RFID Lightweight Wallet

Love the Chums Surfshorts Wallet , but want something a tiny bit bigger? This one's for you. US bills height fit without folding which is a pretty big plus. Comes in great colors choices.

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.
