Leffel’s Other Sites

Tim Leffel websites

You’re on my original budget travel blog, launched way back in 2003 and active ever since. Over the years I have launched other blogs and websites, plus I’ve put up a few resource pages tied into my books. Most serve a specific tribe of people interested in that subject, be it the best travel stories on the web, reviews of gear that won’t break the bank (Practical Travel Gear, which I founded and eventually sold), or interesting places to stay. Here are the rest of Tim Leffel’s websites.

In addition, I am the founder of Guanajuato Street Food Tours, which I sold in 2023. My media company owns the top resource website for luxury travel in Latin America. Here are just a few of the awards these sites have won over the years:

SATW Lowel Thomas Awards – GOLD

Northern Lights Awards (Canada) – GOLD Tim Leffel award-winning travel writer

NATJA Best Travel Writing Awards – Gold, Silver, and Bronze

Solas Best Travel Writing Awards – Gold, Silver, and Bronze

In addition, Leffel’s Perceptive Travel online magazine has won multiple awards with Travel Media Association of Canada.
