Travel Tips

We like to think that traveling better so you can travel more goes well beyond travel hacking.  That’s why we feature a bunch of travel tips so you can save money.  The more money you save, the more you can travel!

About us

We (Jef and Heidi) are a married couple living in Florida and we love to travel as often as possible.   We retired young after spending decades helping people in our careers.  Now we are helping people travel better so they can travel more.  

Unlike some people on social media, we are not looking to make a living doing this.  As a result, you can expect 100% honest advice from us.  In fact, this entire site is purposely NOT optimized for search engines because we want it to be easier to read.  This isn’t meant to be the most popular site on the internet.  Together with our Facebook groups, we want to provide a ton of help to a small number of people!  Thanks for joining us.
