The Cheapest Destinations Blog has been running continually since 2003, with articles from award-winning travel writer Tim Leffel. That’s me at work below.
I’m the author of The World’s Cheapest Destinations, Travel Writing 2.0, and the living abroad book A Better Life for Half the Price. All have been published in multiple editions. I am nomadic part of each year with a home base in Mexico.

I have contributed to more than 50 publications as a freelancer and have been invited to speak on stage in 11 countries. I’m the former chair of the advisory board of NATJA, served as North American Conference Director for TBEX for six years, and am a member of the Adventure Travel Trade Association.
