Hi, we're Lee & Mandy, the Frugal Travellers. We met in 1996 trekking in Nepal & have been to 125 countries.
Our videos show how easy it is to travel the world independently on a budget.
We retired in 2017, in our 40s, to travel full-time, and share how to live on less than US $25 each per day.
Keep watching for practical information & prices to inspire you to put on that backpack and see the world for yourself!

After an amazing time camping down south, we're back in Perth and all ready to go housesitting next week.
We've decided not to wait for Mandy to finish the last 2 Thailand videos as we're aiming to catch up a bit...
SO today's video is one of Lee's vlogs, showing our flight from the UK back to Perth on Malaysia Airlines ✈️🤗
We hope the upcoming mishmash chronological order of videos isn't too confusing... we really need to keep posting at least one video per week to not fall even further behind!
There's an off-grid NZ video, 2 Saudia Airlines videos and also a Journey to Wellness update from Mandy, all coming soon!
Two weeks house-sitting here in Perth will be a great opportunity for us to finish editing the Thailand videos and the Microstates tour as well... and to maybe start editing some Iceland vlogs!🤞😁🤩
Here's wishing you all a great weekend.
Mandy and Lee xx

After an amazing 6 months in Europe and Taiwan, with loads of videos to come, and yet another night sleeping on the floor at Singapore Changi airport, we're back in beautiful Perth 😍🦘🇦🇺
We're going camping in the south of WA this weekend with Smithy, my brother-in-law. We'll be filming the camping trip and showing you our adventures on our first ever trip south to Albany and Denmark 🇦🇺🦘
It's lovely and cool and cloudy here in Perth, and we're currently on the bus on the way to the hospital for my annual checkup.
With all the necessary camping prep and hospital appointment, there's no video today... but the next one on Tuesday with Annie, Steven and Big will be a corker 🤗😃
I hope you have a great weekend, and that you're enjoying our Chanthaburi series with Steven and Big ❤️🥰🇹🇭

Thank you so much for the lovely comments on my new series, Travels in Thailand with My Non-Frugal Sister 🙏🤗
I wasn't sure how these videos would be received, so it's wonderful that so many regular and new viewers are enjoying them 😍❤️
Tomorrow's video is Annie's first 3rd Class Train ride... which was quite an experience during the monsoon season!
NOTE: There'll be a new stand-alone video on Friday as we want to share our recent RYANAIR experience, with practical information and prices.
We hope you enjoy these videos and we look forward to hearing from you ❤️😊

WELCOME all you lovely new subscribers ♥️🤗 After an amazing 5 weeks in Iceland 🇮🇸 and a night sleeping on the floor at yet another airport, we're back in the UK 🇬🇧
Today's video is Lee's first video on his own in India 🇮🇳
There should have been one last video together in Amritsar, which I haven't finished yet... that might be out next week, or it might get skipoed altogether... what do you think? 🤔😊
I had flown back to Australia in August 🇦🇺 to go to Thailand 🇹🇭 with my sister, Annie... those videos will be coming soon 😁🤗
I know we're way behind on our videos,as I film so much...way too much, Lee says 🤣 We will be catching up soon though, as we didn't film much during our time in Australia and New Zealand 🇳🇿
We hope you enjoy these upcoming India videos and we'd love to hear from you. We will answer every comment... it just might take a little while.
Big hugs from Lee and Mandy, the Frugal Travellers xx
