The site hosts more than 340 posts catalogued since 2015 and publishes new material regularly, about three to four pieces a month.

A straight-talking travel blog that reads like a seasoned friend who also happens to teach blogging for a living. The voice is pragmatic and detailed, as the hotel-upgrade post shows with numbered, experience-driven tips and concrete stats like their reported 70 percent upgrade rate. You get long destination guides on places they spend months in, smart budgeting and affordable-luxury suggestions, and a steady stream of travel-smarts posts. They also run a well-developed education platform, so the site blends trip stories with bloggery lessons, and it is updated frequently, with new pieces almost every week.
