Episode 287: 12 Travel Hacks I Swear By as a Nondrinker

Forget the tired "vacation = cocktails" script. Travel can be so much more exhilarating, especially when you're clear-headed, confident, and fully present. In this episode, I'm sharing my 12 favorite travel hacks that make exploring the world as a non-drinker absolutely liberating and so pampering.

As you probably know by now, culture is my lifeblood, and I travel a LOT. I love seeing the world, meeting new people, trying new food, and swimming in new waters.

Some of my travel hacks are beneficial no matter who you are (like how to lean into credit card benefits and breeze through airport security!) while others are especially good to know as a nondrinker (for example, learning how to ask for non-alcoholic drinks in the local language).

I used to sit by the pool with a drink in hand, never leaving the resort. Now? I think of travel very differently, chasing adventures where I can be active and present, from hiking to snorkeling to exploring ancient ruins.

These hacks will change the way you plan your next trip. Get ready to travel lighter, braver, and way more alive.

IN THIS EPISODE:

How learning a few words in the local language opens up a vibrant world of alcohol-free drinks (mocktails, mineral water, juices, and more!) that you'd never spot on the menu
Leveling up your jet-setting, from hacking credit card points for nearly free flights and resorts to breezing past airport lines
Planning trips around wellness, adventure, and self-care, and why ditching the drink helps you discover new cultural, physical, and foodie experiences
The exact things I look for in Airbnbs and hotels (including hidden gems!), and how airport lounges, hydration, and supplements help me feel amazing on the road
