In 2022, I quit a high stress job because I was never able to enjoy my evenings or vacations. When I left that job, I gained life’s most valuable currency - time. And I used that time to become really good at one thing - finding ways to make travel more affordable so I could travel for free and more often.

I started spending hours a week researching tips and tricks to fly for free, find affordable stays, and ultimately cut my travel budget in half. In order to do this, I had to find ways to make my spending and credit card points go further.

But what I noticed is that so many blogs talk about the same hacks (“fly business class to Paris for 25K points”) that may not actually work for everyone. I believe that the best way to use credit cards and redeem credit cards points is what works best for YOU and YOUR lifestyle.

That’s how Let’s Wander Wiser was born.

I wanted to start this website to showcase how easy it is to make your money stretch further. I’ve already done the research so it’s easier for you to take advantage of the same hacks. The best credit card points redemptions are what provides YOU the most value.

Personally, you aren’t going to find me saving all of my points to redeem a perfect business class flight. You aren’t going to find me staying at the most expensive accommodation just to cash in on a credit card perk, as I much prefer a local place to stay if I can swing it. I’m not going to take a crazy flight schedule just to redeem it with points or keep my status.

I look for ways to make my life easier, efficient, and constantly more affordable. If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place. Let’s wander wiser together.
