If you’ve been listening to this show for a while you know I LOVE to travel. I don’t always love the airport and I’m a pretty nervous flyer, but I love discovering new places, integrating into new cultures, trying new foods, and honestly, just relaxing. I’m a little crazy because I love to do all the research before a trip. Yep, I’m that girl who loves to go down travel rabbit holes. I love to play around on a ton of sites and look for the best bang for our buck. But I know you might not enjoy all that work. Our guest and fellow travel lover, Alex Simon, is the Co-Founder and CEO of Elude, this cool new app that helps you find the perfect place to travel to on any budget. It’s a new concept called budget first planning - you pick your budget, then head to Elude and it tells you all the amazing places you can go with that budget. In this episode, we explore all the amazing places you can travel to for a $2,000 or less budget, why budget first travel is so revolutionary, and Alex shares some great tips to help you save even more cash on your trip while still having a luxury experience. I’m in, and can’t wait to talk all about travel, are you ready? Let’s start talkin’. LINKS Elude Elude app SPONSORS Thanks to Chime for sponsoring the show. Get started with Chime today.
