The real secret: I’m not spending money on travel, to travel.

Croatia vacation: roundtrip flights on Aer Lingus using points (worth $1000).

I’m Alicia Case, a travel and experiences addict who has traveled to 35 countries for virtually free by using my travel points and miles. Many of my followers on social media wonder: 

“How can she travel as much as she does? Where does she get the money to travel so often? Why does it seem that she’s always away and going somewhere?”

The real secret: I’m not spending money on travel, to travel. I haven’t paid for nearly 100 roundtrip flights I’ve taken in the last 10 years. I use points. I don’t hoard them.

 Instead of paying nearly $125,000 to take these trips (yes, I’ve gotten myself six-figures worth of trips) instead, I’ve strategically earned points/miles tied to my everyday spending, used those points/miles instead of paying with my hard-earned cash, and maximized this approach to travel repeatedly as a regular part of my life. 

My biggest reward flex: Having my 9-day, $30,000+ honeymoon to the Maldives paid for on points and miles. Yes, I flew business class, and yes, I stayed at a 5-star resort. 

And yes, I can help you do this too. With my EARN, USE, MAXIMIZE philosophy, I’ll work to support your travel goals.
