Hi, I'm Leslie! I'm a pretty typical middle-aged woman from California other than that I'm obsessed with travel! Budget travel in particular. Travel has basically become my religion of sorts and I love to share it with anyone who's willing to listen and/or experience this wonderful diverse world we live in.

My goals are:

To inspire anyone and everyone to travel!

To bring the "over 40" perspective of budget travel.

To share with the traveling community tidbits from the places I've been.

To give myself a cool place to log my travels.
