hi ~ so glad you’re here!

I’m Rosemary ~ Chief Inspiration Officer here at Beautiful Life Beautiful World / Beaut Life World.

I believe that travel can be many things: a way to get out of your comfort zone, to see and be awed by all that this incredible planet has to offer, to make and foster connections, to find, empower, discover, transform, grow.

Here I share my travels (many of them adventures as female solo traveler) and how to maximize your money. The number one question I get after: “where in the world are you now” is “how do you pay for all your trips”?

I have heard some hilarious theories such as I am a trust fund or sugar baby to perhaps a young widower to I am an influencer and these are all sponsored trips but the reality is a bit more boring as the truth is that I pay for my own travels. I use a combination of cash, miles or points and want to teach you how you can do the same!

This site embodies my wishes which are to show you how to travel for cheaper, better and more/often TO GET SEE THIS BEAUTIFUL WORLD and perhaps to inspire you to EXPLORE…to SAVOR…to EXCITE…to HOPE…to DREAM…to LOVE…to BELIEVE…to DESIRE…to DARE…to LIVE FULLY and CREATE YOUR BEAUTIFUL LIFE.

I use miles and points to cover my travel expenses so I can have money for over the top experiences…like doing a flying dress photo shoot in Iceland 😉

Virgin Voyages Comped Cruise

What Did My FREE Virgin Voyages Cruise Really Cost? (XL Sea Terrace Cruise: Valiant Lady 5 Day Riviera Maya for $89/day!))

Can a comped cruise be considered “free”? Many have argued with me that even if the cruise fare for two (or not having a single supplement fee added when traveling solo) is $0, there are all of these other costs so I should not call this a free cruise. One of the reasons why I…
