Hi, I'm Nick! Welcome to my blog. I grew up in London, England and moved to the US many years ago. I've been fortunate to take many trips around this amazing planet - alone and with others. Traveling has become a huge part of my life. During my trips, I'm very passionate about discovering the local flavor of destinations, venturing into neighborhoods and restaurants where the majority of tourists do not step foot. I also make it a point to plan well in advance, find great deals on hotels and activities so that I can simply enjoy when I arrive. Follow me on a journey throughout North America, Europe, Africa and beyond.
Whether you are new to the world of travel or a seasoned globetrotter, you’re in the right place.
To me, this is a way of life, a real desire, and a commitment. A lot of people I come across will tell me this way is not affordable, or is only for the rich. This could not be further from the truth. In addition to sharing my experiences and lessons, I am here to show you that it is possible to travel on a budget and still create life-changing memories. I hope you enjoy my stories and please feel free to reach out with any questions or thoughts!
