In today's episode, we talk to Lee Huffman, a travel blogger and the host of the “We Travel There” podcast. Lee worked as a Divisional CFO for a regional bank. He loves numbers and being in the corporate world seems to be a good fit. His journey into travel hacking began when he started dating his now-wife and how a seemingly expensive trip to Paris prompted him to delve deeper into travel hacking and the world of miles and points.

Lee's journey isn't just about travel hacking; it's about building connections, nurturing relationships, and finding joy in shared experiences.
In the end, Lee teaches us that family comes first, that memories are worth pursuing, and that we have the tools to make incredible experiences a reality.
Stay tuned for Part 2 of my conversation with Lee Huffman but remember to keep traveling, keep thinking about your purpose, and don’t be afraid to pursue it.
Until next time, happy travels!
