My daily at-home and travel card. I travel internationally too much to dedicate to a specific airline or hotel rewards card (but I'm in all of the points programs).
I like the flexibility and value the CSR has in travel!
Their emails for flight deals are my weekly Christmas presents. Input your home airports, and watch the deals come in!

Have you ever booked a Groupon Trip? I have, and loved it!
Groupon trips are based on double-occupancy (you + friend, you + boo, or you + YTN travel buddy) and can be more than 50% the price of a normal trip while being all-inclusive, flight inclusive, and more.
I love banking with Chase, and their Ink Business Preferred helps me rack up points for—you guessed it—more travel, and normal business expenses!

But I did it. My accountant, Kristin, helps me decide what to write off, how to best pay my taxes, how to organize my business as an S-Corp and help me minimize my taxes as a digital nomad!
Honestly, I flipping love them. Siteground was starting to charge out thee a** everytime my site would grow, and I was punished to the tune of hundreds of $$$ for going viral.
Big Scoots is managable up to 100,000 views per month, and their customer support is seriously top notch. They make my life so much easier, and I stan them.
My Day 1 task management software, CRM, and lifeline for my business. It's helps me stay organized on track. AND it's color coded with emojis? GOLD.
A lifeline. A blessing. It is a wizard rope that connects the apps you didn't even know you wanted to connect. I don't know how many ways I can say “worth the investment”.
My favorite international VPN. Worked like a charm my 3 months in Dubai.

You seriously don't know how many little things you misspell until you get Grammarly.
VRBO is like Airbnb, but offers stand-alone vacation homes only. But they have a very specific Book with Confidence Guarantee and Trust & Safety page, while Airbnb simply has a Trust & Safety page. I prefer them!
The best medical health insurance for travelers on the market.
My ride or die work and personal laptop for the last 4 years. Great for any creative.
