Travel Resources

Home / Travel Resources

Travel resources are the bread and butter to travel planning. If you have the right tools, anyone can plan their dream vacation! Once you choose your destination, the planning begins! (Tips for travel planning can be found here)

Travel planning becomes much easier with the right resources! Here I will provide information on all the resources I use to plan my trips, including resources and sites for:

  • Booking flights
  • Finding accommodations
  • Transportation
  • Travel insurance
  • Staying connected overseas
  • Packing guides, and more!

No one or two sites are a magic travel-planning pill. It may, and probably will, take different combinations of these resources to plan each of your different trips. And that’s okay! Be flexible, patient and you are sure to plan a great trip within your budget!
