To put it simply, I love to travel!

Over the course of my life, I’ve had the pleasure of visiting over 24 (and counting) countries, for both leisure and volunteering opportunities. I’ve always been fascinated by traveling the world and being exposed to a country’s rich culture, traditions, food, people, etc.

My passion for travel didn’t hit me until the age of 18. By that time, I was a senior in high school and had access to very little funds. Throughout my college years, I managed to visit what I would consider some of the most beautiful places on Earth, which were all funded solely by me.

My part time job forced me to become familiar with that b-word we all secretly hate—budget!  With very little money in my pocket, I managed to make a dent in my “bucket list” of destinations.

People always asked me, “How is it that you manage to afford all of these trips?” The truth is far less complex than what you would think. The answer? I’ve made it my mission to always get more travel with less money. It’s been my motto throughout each and every destination. What exactly does that mean? I’m a deal chaser, I know that all pennies add up, even the ugly ones.

If you think that traveling is too costly, I promise to change your mind. Join me as we discover the world, one city at a time.
