I love sharing travel advice and tips! These are some of my favorite travel planning tools, and some even will give you discounts for first time use. Please consider using these links, as it supports this fledgling blog 🙂
For Booking accommodation:
Airbnb Your chance to book some unique spots, including home stays. If you would like a $40 discount on your first Airbnb stay, please register HERE.
Booking.com I really love this Dutch company’s booking site. In talking to guesthouses abroad, this company gives the best deal for the property owners and I support companies that allow more money to be shared to locally owned businesses.
Credit Cards:
Chase Sapphire Reserve The credit card that revolutionized my travel.
Purchasing Guidebooks:
I’m old-fashioned and still like to purchase guidebooks when I travel, to have the physical maps and fall back for accommodation and restaurants. Favorites are Lonely Planet, Bradt, and Moon’s.

I like the Lumix superzooms… 24x or more zoom. Great photos and easy to use.
