Kendyl Grender from @kendyltravels grew up in a family that considered travel "for rich people." Until she studied abroad in 2013, she had only been to 4 states and had never been out of the country. Making just $34,000 a year out of graduate school, she made a commitment to see as much of the world as possible. Since then Kendyl has become a pretty savvy budget traveler, traveling to 14 countries and 20 US states with her husband, Aspen, for less than $18,000 over the past 5 years. She's not a nomad, a vagabond or a backpacker circumnavigating the globe. Instead, Kendyl utilizes budget travel tricks to travel more and inspires others to live life half full, too.
In this episode, Kendyl and I discuss how she and her husband were able to take a month off of work and explore Europe for only $4000 out of pocket for the whole month. That includes their flights, accommodations, food, excursions, and everything else!
We also discuss some credit cards that gave Kendyl some free nights at different hotels. Some of my favorites are the World of Hyatt, Marriott Bonvoy Boundless, and IHG Rewards cards, which all come with an anniversary free night certificate in addition to all the free nights you can get from the intro bonuses!
