Guidebooks
Getting Around
Discover the best way to get anywhere at the lowest cost with Rome2Rio: a search engine that displays all possible plane, train, bus, car, and ferry routes.
Car Rentals
With Rentalcars, you can find affordable rental prices worldwide on any type of car: luxury, vans, economy, or family, they have it all!
Visa & Immigration
Obtaining a visa is one of the most important steps in travel planning. Check out these immigration tips for every country on my Visa Guides page.
Travel Insurance
HeyMondo
Always get travel insurance. It is a MUST, and HeyMondo is actually a great company offering comprehensive packages recommended by a lot of travel websites and individuals (me included!).
The icing on the cake? You can extend your insurance and make claims online so it’s perfect if you’re always on the go. (You can also check SafetyWing insurance to compare rates).
Flights
Skyscanner
I’ve been using Skyscanner for YEARS and it has never failed to give me rock-bottom prices across all existing airlines and flight booking sites. You can even set email alerts when the price drops for a flight route in certain time periods or even in month-long ranges!
Secret Flying
Keep yourself updated with worldwide flight promos and error fares by subscribing to Secret Flying. This site has been one of my best-kept secrets: case in point, I once booked a Brussels-Tokyo roundtrip ticket for only 200+ EUR and it was mind-blowing!
Priority Pass
Priority Pass offers affordable membership plans that provide exclusive access to airport lounges worldwide. As one of the most popular ones that you can buy online, you can use the pass no matter the kind of flight ticket you have: short-haul or even economy!
Packing Guides
Packing Guides
Browse through all of my packing guides by season, by type of adventure, and even by destination! For a complete list of the top best travel gear, you can check by my travel shop.
Don’t forget to pack a portable WiFi to stay connected at all times. Meanwhile, in order to protect your data while browsing abroad, make sure to use ExpressVPN.
Accommodations
Booking.com
When it comes to good-value hotels, boutique places, hostels, and luxury properties, I rely a lot on Booking.com. (TIP: Crosscheck with Agoda especially when looking for accommodations in Asia).
Hostelworld
Not a lot of hostels are listed on Booking and Agoda; so, make sure to check HostelWorld. Besides, it has millions of backpacker reviews and it also provides 100% booking guarantee with no booking fee.
HotelsCombined
Free Stays
Earn Remotely
Remote Jobs
Read tips on how you can earn money online as a digital nomad, as well as the other kinds of travel jobs. (See all posts here).
