Practical Tips

Practical tips for travel

This travel blog is a growing guide full of practical tips to help you get where you want to go and do the things you want to do. It will even help you figure out where you do want to travel to in the first place. I will be sharing actual experiences – the good, the bad, and the ugly – so you can learn from some of my successes and mistakes. (Yes, I have actually lost two of my children, one at a time, on our first day in Paris. And, we are all fine and my kids still want to take trips with me.) I will also be breaking down the order I plan trips, the timelines I use, and how I managed to travel a week in Madrid with my daughter for only $1000 including our airfare and Airbnb or a 10 day trip to Peru with my husband for $1200 a person including EVERYTHING.

Choose a topic below to learn more travel tips that you can use for any trip!

The ingenious traveler in Peru

Hi, I’m Christine!

I’ve been traveling my whole life. I can’t remember ever having a time in my life that I didn’t travel. For me, planning my next trip is as natural as doing my weekly meal plan. Life is busy – I juggle a career as a REALTOR®, being a mom of 3, and being active in the community.  However, I know that ANYONE can travel and that it doesn’t have to be overwhelming or expensive.
