Caribbean Bay from Hillside | The Wandercents

Hi, I’m Kate—a budget traveler, adventure-seeker, and storyteller. I spent years traveling solo on a budget, and now I explore the world with my wife, proving that awesome travel experiences don’t have to break the bank. From hotel-ing across the U.S. to backpacking through Eastern and Western Europe, Southeast Asia, and New Zealand, I’ve learned how to stretch every dollar (or euro, or baht!).

In The Wandercents, I share budget-friendly travel guides, packing advice, and insider hacks to help you travel more for less—whether you’re a solo traveler, couple, or just someone who loves a good deal. Ready to start planning your next adventure? Let’s go!
