🌎 Are you someone that loves to travel?
✈️ Love a travel bargain and discovering new places?
🛏️ Hotel rather than hostel?
💳 Mid range rather than really budget?
👍 Travelling without kids?
🐕 Dog Lover? (Not necessarily affecting travel but just means you are extra lovely!)
Well great news – you are in just the right place!
Working hard to sniff out the best deals and bargains
Professional Traveller
Very much like a dachshund myself. Determined to hunt out a bargain and sniff out great deals. Not great at being told what to do either!
Expert Sleeper
As the oldest member of the team (in doggy years) Lotty gets to sleep a lot. She can’t see very much now, or hear very well but she still makes her views known.
Treat Demon
Able to sniff out a gravy bone or a treat in the local area, Christy loves her food. Every meal time she barks with excitement – similar to her owner?!
Live with no excuses and travel with no regrets
