My Travel Style

First Class Taste on an Economy Class Budget

I’m a traveler with first class taste on an economy class budget. My travel goals always seem to be above my means. I have limited funds and time off work, but I crave those luxury experiences. Despite any setbacks, I always manage to plan that luxury fix into each and every one of my trips.

Lookout for my Blue Sails Tips

Be sure to be the look out for Blue Sails Tips scattered throughout my articles. These are ways you can easily incorporate a bit of luxury into your experience without breaking the bank. These are the travel hacks I live for, and I can’t wait to share them with you!

Example: You want to lounge in an infinity pool overlooking the Santorini coast, but cannot afford a villa that costs thousands per night.

Blue Sails Tip: Book an Airbnb in Santorini with a pool overlooking the sea. There are so many gorgeous and affordable cave homes for rent in Oia, many with outdoor pools, or, even better, heated hot tubs. Be sure to get one with a view, overlooking the caldera and the open sea.
