Miles! Rewards! Hacks! Bad deals, and fine print. Holly Johnson of Club Thrifty teaches us to travel smart without going broke.

Leave us your review on Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.
Budget travel doesn’t have to mean staying in student hostels, eating fast food, and living out of your backpack. And you don’t need to know “secrets” to get the best deals.
Traveling on a set budget requires planning, flexibility, and a little savvy. There are a lot of ways to vacation within your means without sacrificing quality—or getting suckered by a bad deal.
Holly and Greg Johnson, the founders of the budget travel blog Club Thrifty, left their jobs in the funeral industry (really!) to embrace the joys of global adventure.
Holly shares her tips, hacks, red flags, and all the ways she learned to follow her dreams while taking her family around the world.
Send us your questions at [email protected], and we’ll try to answer them on a future episode.
