Travel Hacking 101: How To Travel Longer for Less

Nov 15, 2016 | Food & Travel

HoneyTrek, December 8, Smithsonian Associates: Hirshhorn Museum & Sculpture Garden Marion & Gustave Ring Auditorium 7th St & Independence Ave SW Metro: L’Enfant Plaza Tickets HERE.

As part of our Smithsonian Associates, Art Of Living series, we are joined today by Mike and Anne Howard, of HoneyTrek.

After a decade working nine-to-five, Mike and Anne Howard decided that life is short and their bucket list was long . . . so they quit their jobs, rented out their apartment, and embarked on a trip around the world. Five years later, they are still at it—traveling across seven continents and more than 50 countries.

In a conversation rich with resources, the Howards—founders of the travel website HoneyTrek.com—share practical tips and industry trends illustrating how you can travel well for significantly less. The couple describe a more immersive and creative way to travel—where saving money is but one of the pleasurable benefits.

From frequent flyer tickets to free lodging, no-cost volunteering, and hidden-gem destinations, they point out ways you can transfer from the “tourist track” and move out as a globetrotter—on any budget.

Enjoy.
