About Author
Rosemary is a travel hacker, points nerd, money maximizer, and female solo traveler who’s explored 70+ countries without a trust fund, sugar daddy, or sponsored content. Every mile, upgrade, and trip is completely self-funded using a mix of points, miles, and cash or earned with elite status.Through firsthand experience and plenty of trial and error, she teaches everyday travelers the art of travel hacking ie how they too can travel for cheaper, better, and more often (and she provides receipts along with a mildly concerning amount of spreadsheets)
While Rosemary doesn’t take herself too seriously, she does take award travel, making her money work harder (and searching for the best ice cream) seriously – and shares it all here because she believes that seeing the world or living your most beautiful life shouldn’t be reserved for the rich, the retired, or content creators with brand deals.
When not traveling, she is based in Denver, Colorado and loves to share the amazing things you can do, see, and experience (many of which are free!) in the Centennial state (which she feels absolutely blessed to be able to call home)
