Who we are

Hi, weโ€™re Lorraine & Jeff - an adventurous duo exploring the world at a slow pace, accompanied by our two oversized shadows (a pair of Great Danes) and one very patient cat. We love sharing the authentic side of life while traveling: from budget-friendly tips and finance hacks to everyday adventures (and occasional misadventures!).

Our motto is simple: Travel far. Spend smart. We believe exploring the world doesnโ€™t have to cost a fortune, and weโ€™re here to show you how.

Whether youโ€™re planning a trip, curious about daily life in different places, or just love a good grocery haul abroad, weโ€™ve got stories, guides, and plenty of pet cameos to keep things fun.

Join us as we keep exploring - one city, one budget, and one belly rub at a time.
