Hi! We're just your average husband and wife flying around the world in business class for FREE. Without our miles and points, we never would have been able to afford this once-in-a-lifetime experience. We grew up on opposite sides of the United States in Texas and Ohio. Later in college, we met and got married in August of 2016. As poor newly weds and recent college grads, we moved to New York City to begin what we thought would be our long careers in finance. Only one year later, after accumulating over 2 million points through travel hacking, we booked round-the-world business class tickets to over 40 countries. Completely for free, using the personal travel hacks we had learned to save us $62,000. We quit our jobs, sold everything we owned, and began this once-in-a-lifetime adventure on August 27, 2018. Our hope is to entertain and enrich you every day through our daily videos, as well as share the personal travel hacks we're using to travel the world for free :) Let's be friends :) say hello sometime!

Cage diving with white sharks in Gansbaai, South Africa
Put together the video of the time I did shit only white people would do, according to my African friends: Cage diving with white sharks in Gansbaai, South Africa! While it was amazing to be so close to these beautiful creatures, I was hoping for a bigger adrenaline kick (is that a bad thing :p ?). The cage was super safe and the sharks did not come close enough to touch us; in fact, I was barely able to see them in the ice cold, murky water and had a much better view from the boat! If you went cage diving before, where did you do it and how was your experience? If you haven't - is it something on your bucket list?
Vol. II - GANSBAAI
CAPE SECRETS
Gansbaai is a popular fishing town located in the western cape. It’s about 2 hours from Cape town and is perhaps best known as the Great White Shark Capital of the world, but there is so much more to this small town.
Gansbaai falls under the Dyer Island Conservation Trust, home to thousands of seabirds, including the iconic African penguins, Whales who migrate here from Antarctica, Orcas (though not very often), Dolphins and roughly 60,000 seals. We had the pleasure of touring the area with a company called Marine Dynamics who founded the conservation trust. They run a highly successful and educational shark diving tour, if you’ve seen Great Whites on TV, they have most likely been filmed here, it honestly changed my preconception of great whites. The founder of Marine Dynamics is Wilfred Chivell.
Marine Dynamics actually founded the African penguin and seabird sanctuary whom they work closely with. This might not be a known fact but the African penguins are endangered and scientist believe they may be extinct by 2013 (which breaks my heart). These beautiful little birds face a variety of challenges such as oil spills, fishing line entanglement, seal bites & shark bites.
Aside exploring this incredible eco-system, we had a chance to explore the Gansbaai caves and the HMS Birkenhead memorial site. Apparently, the legendary Birkenhead treasure is still waiting to be found… The Gansbaai area is also known for its rich Fynbos (part of the Cape Floral Kingdom).
Gansbaai really surprised me, I couldn’t recommend it more for those looking for a fun weekend away.
Here are some links for the places we stayed/visited:
