A practical guide for budget travel

A glass of wine in front of a twinkling Eiffel Tower, outstretched arms before an expansive Grand Canyon, a chaise-longue on an idyllic beach in the pacific … the realization of such fantasies is reserved to the well-off in life, right?

Wrong. Travel is accessible to any and everyone—as long as you’re willing to reconsider the ways in which you approach, experience, and think about seeing the world.

This course is a comprehensive practical guide to budget travel. From transport to accommodation, health to socializing, packing to hacking, we’ve got you covered.

You’ll soon be equipped to visit places you never thought possible, and save money in ways you never knew how.

No more barriers, hesitation, or excuses. Let’s Shut Up and Go.
