Travel Blog Stars: Another Funny White Guy

Tim Leffel's Cheapest Destinations is (like its title) straightforward. Tim's comedic voice, however, saves the blog from the saccharine repulsiveness that make service stories in, say, women's magazines, so unbearable. Less "how to get more for less" and more "how to have an awesome time traveling even if you're not loaded," Leffel gives helpful tips and tricks while still tackling the broader social issues of the places he visits.

According to his bio, Leffel also wrote The World's Cheapest Destinations, as well as Make Your Travel Dollars Worth a Fortune: The Contrarian Traveler's Guide to Getting More for Less. He is also editor of Perceptive Travel.

On second thought, Leffels' blog is so freaking comprehensive that he might put us out of a job. Nevermind. Don't click on this link.

(Publisher's Note: I don't think Claire knows this, but Tim is a long time contributing editor over at HotelChatter, Jaunted's big sister site. Then again, maybe Claire is fully aware, and this is all just subconscious travel media synergy at work. Who knows. Either way, he absolutely deservers being dubbed a travel blog star.)
