Welcome to Escapes Etc – your resource hub for affordable travel!

I’m gonna throw it out there; I don’t believe that there is a single person who doesn’t have somewhere that they want to go to. That somewhere that they spend hours daydreaming about, researching, planning but feel they just can’t do it. Well, you’re in the right place as…

I’m here to show you that you can travel!

The mission of Escapes Etc is simple – to provide relatable, down to earth, handy guides to help you plan your trips and travels. It’s a place for the perfect medium of affordability through finding value. When I travel, I don’t have a tonne of money but I don’t travel on absolutely nothing. Escapes Etc is a bargain-hunting, comfort-keeping information filled zone to inspire you to adventure out across the world.
