travel resources

Rome2Rio is an absolute necessity for travel! This site consolidates all of your travel options into one platform (plane, train, car, etc) so that you can see the exact steps needed to get from point A to point B.

A must-have app for road trips. Plan out your next route, and discover epic attractions to visit along the way. Make sure to download the app to reference as you travel!

Quickly & easily compare rental car prices from multiple brands. I often use this to search options first, and then double check the prices directly on the car rental company’s site.

TransferCar is a free one-way car rental! You drive the rental car from a pre-determined pick-up to drop-off location for the rental car company. Available in New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Brazil and North America!

Viator is a global experiences marketplace, connecting travelers with epic tours and activities - featuring anything from wine tastings to walking tours to cooking classes and more.

Campendium is our go-to resource for campsites! It has tens of thousands of places to camp - from swanky RV parks to free remote destinations.

iOverlander is a database of places specifically for overlanders and road-trip travelers. It includes camping (both free and paid sites), hotels, restaurants, mechanics, water, propane filling stations, etc.

Harvest Hosts is a membership that gives you access to overnight stays (in your self-contained RV or van) at super unique locations around the country like farms, wineries, breweries & more.

The Dyrt is a must-use platform for finding campgrounds, reviews, and campsite tips. You can also book campgrounds for tents, RVs, cabins, and glamping, or find totally free camping all on the site.

I use this app on a weekly basis! AllTrails is one of the very best hike planning sites, with an extensive collection of trails around the world.

AirBnb is a tried-and-true favorite for amazing lodging across the globe. Cozy cabins, treehouses, castles - you name it, they have it.

Booking.com is a great spot to start your accommodation research. From there, I cross-check prices with the hotel’s website, or book directly on Booking if there’s a great deal.

VRBO is another must-use site when looking for vacation rental homes and unique stays.

Hostelworld is my go-to site for hostel research, reviews and bookings around the world. I personally love mixing hostel stays into my travels - the community experience is unlike any other type of accommodation.

My go-to site for new camera gear & accessories from all major brands.

The very best site for purchasing high quality pre-owned camera gear, or selling your used gear.

Camera gear backpacks that you’ll want to carry everywhere. I would never travel without mine!

(Previously Scott’s Cheap Flights). Emails that I actually look forward to! Sign up and get amazing cheap flight deals delivered right to your inbox. Also, you can sign up for a premium plan to get access to exclusive flight deals.

Skyscanner is one of my must-use travel search sites. Either plug in your exact dates, or use the “whole month” search function to find the cheapest flight options across various airlines.

Google Flights is the best place to start your flight research. Use this to search for the cheapest flight dates, set tracking alerts for when prices drop, and more.

WayAway is a flight aggregator that pulls the best rates on flight searches, and the WayAway Plus membership plan offers cashback on flights, accommodation, car rentals, tours, and more.

A great resource for plane seat maps, seat reviews & the best places to sit, and amenity info about your upcoming flight so that you can book the very best spot available.

I’ve used WorkAway in various countries for sustaining long-term travel, and have loved every experience. This is the world's leading site for volunteer & work opportunities abroad - often in exchange for your accommodation and meals! My personal favorite experience was volunteering at a coastal bed & breakfast.

Selina is a network of accommodations throughout the world for digital nomads, providing guests with beautiful & comfortable places to stay, travel, and work abroad indefinitely.

Remote Year is a curated trip service specifically for Digital Nomads. You can choose to book 1, 4 or 12 month long trips in epic destinations - with every detail sorted out for you before departure!

Another great work exchange website for opportunities around the world. Search by location and/or job type to find opportunities that offer accommodation in exchange for your volunteer time. This can be anything from organic farm help to working the front desk at a hostel!
