Travel is one of the most mind- and life-expanding activities we can undertake. But, too often, we overpay for the elements of our vacation, and end up on trips that don’t live up to our expectations. Pauline Frommer will discuss ways you can save on lodging, airfares, meals, and activities whether you’re a backpacker or a luxury traveler. She’ll also highlight the best places to go in 2025, and strategies for putting together vacations that allow you to actually meet locals, and dig deep into the culture and history of the place you’re visiting.
