ABOUT THIS BLOG

We started this blog to share how we have been able to travel extensively without breaking the bank. We wanted to highlight that no matter where you are going and no matter how long you are going for, you don't have to be limited by cost.

Although this website was founded in December 2018, we still have many travels to document, new and old!

After a few of our honest comments were deleted by TripAdvisor, we decided to look to blogs for travel reviews. We found that many of the big travel sites, blogs and Instagram influencers weren't catered to people on lower budgets. We also had a hard time finding information about using public transport, restaurants and grocery stores, hiking and other local details when we were planning trips. Information we felt was badly needed in order to travel more cheaply. We also noticed that a lot of blogs seemed to be run be people who quit their jobs and decided to spend years on the road, something the vast majority of us cannot do even if we wanted to.

We hope that this blog helps you plan budget friendly trips and inspires you to see new places!

A LITTLE ABOUT US

Caitlin

​I am from Niagara Falls, Canada. From a young age I wanted to travel and at the age of 15, I moved to New Zealand for one year on a self-funded student exchange.
​
After high school, I moved to Birmingham, England as an exchange student (this time through university) in 2013 and began going on "budget breaks" throughout my studies. I moved back to in England in 2017 to complete my Master's in Conservation Biology. 

I'm a history and nature lover. I am hoping to add a traveling sustainability section to this blog in the near future.  I love taking photos on our trips and I am constantly looking for travel deals. 


Since March 2020, we have been living in Southern Ontario, Canada.

​I am a geography and history fanatic and lover of the great outdoors. I am very interested about learning more about the varied peoples and cultures we encounter on our travels.

Traveled extensively during our time at university together (2012 - 2015) and continued to travel to meet up with each other when I lived in the UK and Caitlin lived in Canada.

Currently balancing being able to explore this beautiful continent while also completing my studies.
