A penny-free trip
By Diana Pereira
Yes, there’s been a delay in my blog posts. Why? Idea-block (kinda like writer’s block). Haven’t done any travelling since returning from Spain last month. Anyway, it won’t happen again, you’re going to hear from me every week. I’m hoping to travel all the time in one way or another. Right now, I’m actually looking for a free trip.
Yes, a free trip. Isn’t that what everyone wants?
Since I’ve nearly broken the bank with my recent travels (Since February 2007: Cuba, United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Egypt, Brazil, Argentina, Spain and smaller trips to New York, Montreal (twice) and Ottawa), I *need* a free trip.
This weekend I’m going to spend some time exploring options with Air Miles.
And on Monday, I’ll give you the 101 on booking travel with Air Miles. I’m looking for a Thanksgiving long weekend getaway. Maybe Quebec City, Maybe New York City. A trip for two with my mom, we’re hoping for a mother-daughter weekend. We’re looking for an Air Miles-funded flight or a train ride (I don’t want to drive and pay for gas) and accommodation, either at a hotel or B&B.
Check back next week and I’ll give you the 411. Also, if you write and let me know your experiences, good and bad, with Air Miles, I’ll be grateful. I’d love to get a discussion going.
Have a fun weekend!

You might want to consider house-swapping. I wish I could remember the name of the major organization I checked into but I’m sure you could find something through google. That way, you’re only having to really think about getting there/around, since your housing will be covered. Good luck!
