By now you should know that I am a budget traveler at heart. And I love helping others save money on travel as well.
And while I think I have my fair share of good ideas, tips and suggestions in this department – I certainly don’t have all the answers. This Travel Tip Tuesday, I would like to point you to some other helpful information that others have written. I have rounded up info on everything from making the most of airline frequent flyer programs to suggestions for budget eats in the UK.
Enjoy!
The New York Times has a nice piece entitled 10 Ways to Cut Your Travel Costs This Year. Certainly you’ll find something you can do!
