Dream. Plan. Travel.

Your Guide to Independent Travel on a Budget

What started as a six-month trip to Europe turned into a two-year odyssey for Cathleen Fulton as she traveled solo through 17 countries, experiencing the food and culture, getting to know the locals, and hiking in the countryside.

From being afraid to walk outside her guesthouse door to hiking the mountains of Kyrgyzstan she gained confidence and comfort in her own skin. Cathleen styles herself as a solo, independent, slow, long-term, and frugal traveler. In Dream. Plan. Travel., she uses vignettes from her own travels as examples of lessons learned as she became more confident traveling the world. She helps you determine your own travel style so your journey is filled with rich experiences and engagement with locals.

Each chapter is packed with the nitty-gritty details of successful trip planning.

1 thought on “Dream. Plan. Travel. Book Page”

  1. This book is extraordinarily useful for any traveler, but especially for novice travelers. Details abound for the beginning traveler: what documents are required for overseas travel, how are they obtained, how to find lodging, the most economical way to get there, etc. There are many, many helpful and thought-provoking questions and insights to help someone decide what type of traveler they are. It also offers encouragement to the seasoned traveler to stretch their current ideas about how to travel. The author covered such a wide range of ideas, not pushing any one type of travel, but allowing the reader to determine their own. An excellent resource.
