Hi, I’m Shaun – a lover of memorable experiences, great food, and overall awesome times. I live to travel and aim to measure my life in moments, not possessions. Through This Life in Trips, I share my adventures and insights to inspire you to explore the world and create your own unforgettable memories.

My Journey

I started This Life in Trips as a way to document my travels, share my experiences, and inspire others to explore the world on their own terms. What began as a personal journal has grown into a resource for travelers looking for practical advice, unique itineraries, and ways to make travel a sustainable part of their lives.

My goal is to show that whether you’re traveling full-time, part-time, or balancing travel with a career, you can still have incredible adventures and make the most of every trip.

IMG_3717 Over my almost 20 years of documenting my travels, I have gained a wide experience of travel styles—from backpacking and using rail passes through Europe to first-class flights and luxury safaris and train trips through Africa.

I have experienced travel as both a full-time and part-time explorer, the latter while not just holding down a successful career but excelling at it.

Through these experiences, I have learned invaluable travel hacks and strategies that I am excited to share so you can make travel fit into your life, too.

Additionally, over the years, I have become an expert at maximizing reward points, particularly booking incredible trips through Aeroplan. I have helped hundreds of others do the same, unlocking unforgettable travel experiences while saving thousands on flights and accommodations.
