Jackie Laulalein is a blogger at the Budget Minded Traveller, the host of the Budget Minded Traveller podcast. She is also the author of The Aspiring Traveler’s Handbook: A preparation guide to international travel which is a handbook for those wanting to get started with travel. She fell in love with being abroad ever since doing a study abroad in Costa Rica in 2003. She has been travelling ever 6 months or so since then by mastering the art of traveling and living on a budget, which is what allows her to continue on this path of consistent travel. Her work is to inspire and equip other Americans to get into the world of travel in a realistic, affordable, and most of all rewarding way. In this episode we talk about how she got started in travel due to her love of Spanish and how when she got back from her study abroad in Costa Rica she was a different person. This was so influential to her that she would then earn money only to travel. Then with all this experience, people came to her for advice and she later started blogging to give advice to more people. She gives advice for the long term travellers, solo travellers, and women travellers as well. She teaches preparedness so therefore when she shares her worst experience while travelling it is extremely lame. Finally she says that travel can give you a life and help you get outside your comfort zone, in her case she found her calling.  Her joke: "Why didn’t the seagull wanna fly over the bay? Because then it would be a bagel"

BITW 014: How to Become a Yahoo Contributor with Budget Travel Expert Jackie Laulainen

“No matter where you go, make sure you go for at least a year.” After receiving that advice from another traveler, Jackie Laulainen took off for Costa Rica to spend an academic year abroad at just 18. She was immediately enamored with the country and experience, and the effect travel had on her. Today, she is the host of The Budget Minded Traveler’s Podcast, which is helping you to travel more for less. Jackie studied abroad when she was 18, and got hooked on travel as a teenager. She’s lived in Italy, as well as nomadically, moving on every 6 months to somewhere new. She’s been to at least 35 countries, and is an expert in budget travel strategies. Her podcast and website are helping her audience save money in a very practical way while making their travel dreams come true. She also wrote The Aspiring Travelers Handbook, striving to inspire and equip others to travel this beautiful world as well, on a budget.

You've gotta just go." Jackie's Best Travel Advice: 	The First Step: “The first step is just deciding to go, and then you have to do it. The hardest thing is the logistics of leaving things behind and once you get there, but don’t worry about that. You are way more resourceful than you realize. You will figure it out. The biggest thing is if you have an interest, even in the slightest, you’ve gotta go… There are so many people who go through this world without even trying to see it, that if you’re one of the few who wants to see it, you’ve gotta do it. You’ve gotta just go. 	Money Saving Tip: Concentrate on airfare. Aspiring travelers don’t have miles but there are many things you can do to save hundreds or thousands. 	Packing Tip: Don’t get a huge backpack. Get a small one that fits in overhead luggage. Jackie uses a 50 gallon backpack. Here's her article about how to choose a backpack.
