Budget travel doesn’t have to mean staying in student hostels, eating fast food, and living out of your backpack. And you don’t need to know “secrets” to get the best deals.
Traveling on a set budget requires planning, flexibility, and a little savvy. There are a lot of ways to vacation within your means without sacrificing quality—or getting suckered by a bad deal.
Holly and Greg Johnson, the founders of the budget travel blog Club Thrifty, left their jobs in the funeral industry (really!) to embrace the joys of global adventure.
Holly shares her tips, hacks, red flags, and all the ways she learned to follow her dreams while taking her family around the world.
