Car Camper

I graduate college Saturday !!! After managing to cram four years into six, the end is finally here. I moved back home temporarily to finish and I will be continuing on this adventure called life. My plan as of right now is to travel up to the pacific northwest for the month of May, stopping in Portland, Seattle, and Vancouver. Then cruising down to Tahoe for the month of June, flying to Atlanta June 15th for a fun weekend with the family, and then going to Denmark to hang with some friends and work at their new coffee shop !

Here is the start of the build process in my 2004 Saturn Vue, I am hoping to sleep in it sometimes when a campsite or friends couch isn’t available. We built the platform out of 8 ply birch wood and 2X4′s. The backseats are still in the car and by removing a few screws we can easily still fit passengers in the back, thanks to some genius engineering by Izaiah and myself. We also added a fold out tabletop for cooking and counter space. I final touch is the bottle opener attached under the table top !

How I flew to Asia and back for $532.23

First off thanks for anyone who has been reading these , I'm not necessarily sure what the end goal for these little blog posts is but I have enjoyed sharing my insights on travel non-the-less, this one is a little bit more on the complex side but I assure you it's not that bad !!

So the first thing I decided when the idea came to me that I should go to Asia is that I was going to sell my camera body and upgrade to a new brand and model, this may not sound relevant now but it will make more sense as I progress.

I went ahead and opened an American Express Delta Sky Miles credit card , with a bonus of 30,000 sky miles after spending 1,000 U.S dollars , 30,000 miles will get me across the ol Pacific Ocean no problem . If any of you want I can send you a referral link for this offer and I will get a bonus 5,000 miles or something if you sign up! There are multiple other airlines who offer different deals just like delta.

I opened the account and sold my previous camera gear, then I purchased the new camera gear on my fancy new American Express card, and payed it off within 3 business days. Soon enough I had enough sky miles to book that one way flight to Korea , and I also had a credit card with a balance of $0.00 that won't negatively affect my credit score.

After traveling for a few weeks, I kept my eyes peeled for any deals back to the U.S , within a fairly flexible time zone. Using websites such as www.skyscanner.com and www.google.com/flights I eventually found a cheap flight for 532.23 USD all the way back to the States ! I booked it and the rest was history.

And thats all she wrote !

Cheers,

TC
