  • Welcome to Canadian Travel Hacking

    I want to welcome you to this new blog for Canadians that will share how Canadians can get the most out of their travel budget. I love to travel and I believe that Canadians do not travel enough.

    Previously, I co-founded Grocery Alerts Canada, where my wife and I share grocery coupons, grocery deals, and show ways for Canadians to shrink their grocery bill.

    I have an Honours Bachelor of Commerce degree from Lakehead University with a major in Information System as well as a Graduate Certificate in Project Management at Royal Roads University.

    While on parental leave, I traveled to over four continents, thirteen countries, with my nine month old daughter (at the time) and wife for two months.

    My saving tips and advice have been featured in CNN Money, Global BC, Todays Parent, Toronto Star, MoneySense, The Globe and Mail, and BC CTV news.

    I live in Victoria, BC with my wife and daughter.
