If there is one thing I’ve gotten good at over the past few years, it’s booking travel. Oh more specifically, saving money on travel!
In this section, I’ve rounded up all of my favorites tried and tested companies. These are my go-to places when I need to book anything as they never fail to help me find the best prices.
I’m a Skyscanner girl. I know everyone has their flight search booking engine of choice, well this is mine. It has ever failed to help me find the best prices on flights. Some prefer google flights, which pretty much does the same thing, I just don’t find it as easy to use personally.
As far as I’m concerned no other company comes close to Booking.com for ease of use and selection worldwide. It is my first port of call, always. Once I’ve checked there I then check the price on Hostel World. I also like to check out the reviews on TripAdvisor.
I must admit, I don’t always like to pre book tours or experiences before I arrive at a place. But when I’m researching I love looking through Viator, Get Your Guide, and TripAdvisor. I also love booking tours with Walks so I always see if they have anything in the place I’m visiting.
In the wise words of Nomadic Matt, “If you can’t ford travel insurance, then you can’t afford to travel!” Like most other travel bloggers I’m a fan of World Nomads. It is who I personally have used in the past, and who I will continue to use in the future. For longer-term travel, or if you are a digital nomad, then it’s Safety Wing all the way!
Staying connected to WiFi is important to me as a Digital Nomad. So one thing I never leave home without is my TEPPY! This little guy helps me stay online no matter where I am. You can rent or buy depending on your personal circumstances. They can deliver it to you pretty much worldwide.
If you don’t have a VPN yet then you really need one. I personally use Nord VPN and it does everything I need! I can watch HULU no matter where I am in the world. I can search for flight deals without revealing where in the world I am, and it keeps all my data secure when I’m on an insecure network.

Hi I’m Claire!
At 34 I sold all my worldly possessions that wouldn’t fit into 3 boxes or my backpack and hit the road.
I started Claire’s Itchy Feet to inspire women to pack their bags and travel more. With no plans to stop anytime soon I’m always looking for my next adventure be it attempting to surf or climbing a volcano I’ll try (almost) anything once!
