Suzi Lee, The Ultimate Frugaltarian
Left the USA on October 10, 2006 and at the time of writing (May 24, 2008) I have no definite plans of going back for a while. Too much of the world to see, too many new friends to make, too many new cultures and languages to understand. Work can wait. My life can not.
I'm a bare-bones budget traveler, getting around by hitch-hiking, taking local chicken buses and sleeping in cheap hostels or occasionally on the floor of kind locals. I have been blessed to experience what I have thus far on my journey.
Traveling and volunteering my way around the world has become a lifestyle choice for me. I enjoy this way of giving back, paying it forward, helping others in need.
I have become a frugaltarian in the past years living on the road....I really watch what I spend on a daily basis. Yes, it's true, I spend less on the road that I would just living in the states. It is possible. It's not always fun, it's not always easy, but it's definitely a daily challenge and one that will allow me to continue this vagabond lifestyle, hopefully for many more years.
