Get to Know Travels by Lance - Your Travel Companion

Hey, I’m Lance — a travel enthusiast, storyteller, and your go-to guide for planning unforgettable adventures without breaking the bank. Originally from Michigan and now living in California, I’ve journeyed across all seven continents and visited more than 40 countries, always with one goal in mind: to experience the world authentically, affordably, and with purpose.
All About Me
Traveling is one of the most inspiring experiences a person can have. I have come to realize this through my journeys. It enables us to explore new horizons, expand our perspectives, and uncover different cultures and lifestyles.
​
Growing up in Michigan's northern Peninsula was a truly special experience, even though life seemed to move slower than in other places. Thankfully, my family understood the importance of exploring new places, and our spring trips to Florida were always a highlight. As a child, I always looked forward to our spring vacations in Florida, where I could soak up the sun on the stunning beaches and have a blast at the amusement parks. After completing High School, I embarked on a new chapter and headed west to California, where the sun always shines brightly. In California, I pursued my passion for Entertainment and Tourism Management, and I am grateful for the knowledge and experiences I gained while at university.
​
After finishing college, I embarked on a new adventure in Australia for half a year. It was an incredible opportunity to immerse myself in the local culture, indulge in delicious food, and connect with the fantastic Australian people. Every single moment was filled with joy and excitement. Eventually, I returned to California and resumed my work routine. However, deep down, I always had an insatiable desire to keep exploring the world. I eagerly seized every chance that came my way, whether it was a day trip or a short weekend getaway. As a result, I have now had the privilege of visiting more than 40 countries and setting foot on all seven continents.
​
Sharing my adventures and the breathtaking destinations I've discovered is what drives me. My ultimate aim is to inspire people to embark on their travel journeys. I hope to ignite a sense of wanderlust in those unable to explore the world themselves. Whether you're daydreaming about your next trip or caught up in the busyness of life, I want to bring the magic of travel to you. Through my experiences, I aim to show that traveling doesn't have to be expensive; I want to inspire others to discover the world on a budget. Furthermore, I am dedicated to helping people plan their trips and revealing the secrets of booking affordable travel.
​
I started this blog because I constantly receive inquiries from people curious about how I manage to travel so frequently. It's incredible how many individuals have asked me if I have a blog, and I can proudly say I do. Join me on this incredible journey as I embark on life's adventures. Allow me to assist you in experiencing the wonders of travel.
