The Million-Mile Secret: How to travel for free with Lisette Austin

Welcome to another exciting episode of Traveling on Purpose. Today’s guest is Lisette Austin. 

Jetset Lisette

At a very young age, Lisette, an only child, was blessed with parents who shared her passion for exploration. From the picturesque landscapes of Europe to sunny getaways in Mexico and adventures across the United States, her childhood was a tapestry of unforgettable travel experiences. A wanderlust-driven heart was nurtured from an early age.

As Lisette ventured into adulthood, she found herself longing for more adventures but lacking the resources she once had.

Stay tuned as we talk more about Lisette's travel hacking adventures, her secrets to accumulating miles without accumulating debt, and the incredible experiences she's unlocked along the way.
