Happy Yep, I'm coming to you a day early because tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the United States. I like to take this weekend to think about all the things in my life that I'm grateful for, and one of those things is YOU! I appreciate all of you taking the time to read my emails every week, even when I'm not traveling. I work hard every week to find you the best travel giveaways, news, deals, and more! So thank YOU for being a part of my newsletter community!! Before you enjoy the holiday weekend, if you're American, I wanted to share with you all my Black Friday blog posts in case you plan on shopping on Friday. (Or sooner, since many deals are already out there!) Here are my two general Black Friday blog posts: I also have a ton specific to some of my favorite travel companies:
(I also have one I'm working on about the Priority Pass Black Friday sale. Priority Pass is my favorite way to get into airport lounges all over the world. It will be out this afternoon, so check the blog or reply to this email for the link!) Finally, if you want to maximize your savings this year, make sure to use Rakuten for cashback on online purchases! I use them when I make purchases at places like Target, Best Buy, Viator, and Sephora. They send me a check every three months with my cashbackβit's that easy! Plus, when you sign up with this link, you get a bonus $40 back when you make your first purchase with Rakuten! I hope you all enjoy tomorrow, whether you're celebrating a holiday or not. And good luck finding some great travel deals for Black Friday. Have a great weekend :) Sarah Some links in this email are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a commission if you click the link or make a purchase through the link. This is at no extra cost to you.

What do you think about this? Read more! Travel Insurance One of the things I get asked about the most is travel insurance. Should you get it, and if so, which one? YES, you should have travel insurance, as you never know when things may go wrong. SafetyWing is my go-to for travel insurance because it covers so much, is easy to purchase for days or months, and is affordable. Many credit cards also include travel insurance. Personally, I get SafetyWing on top of my credit card insurance. Learn more about SafetyWing and the benefits of using them in my blog post about travel insurance. |

A trip with good travel friends to Turkey A girl's trip with college friends in Europe Three travel conferences around the US (Utah, Portland OR, and Puerto Rico!) Plus, quite a few trips around the US to catch baseball games (Arizona, Miami,...
Happy Thursday! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving, if you are in the US, and everyone is having a good December so far! As always, I'm glad the Black Friday emails have slowed down and the crazy shopping days are over. I do all my shopping online to avoid the crowds, and my Christmas shopping has been done for over a week now! I'm excited to be able to take this month to enjoy time with friends and family instead of trying to shop and think of last-minute gift ideas. I also spent my few...
