Welcome back to another episode of the While She's Away Podcast! In this episode, I basically get taught a 101 class on credit cards, points and miles, and travel hacking. This is nowhere near my area of expertise so I'm super excited to have this week's guest, Lindsay Mukaddam, sharing everything she knows!

Lindsay is a travel blogger and content creator based in Austin, TX focusing on solo travel for women. She encourages and educates women on how to discover their strength and independence through exploring the world. Lindsay hosts group trips around the world for members of the OGW community.

In this episode, we chat about:

• How Lindsay got started in travel hacking
• How to find your first travel credit card
• How to get the best redemption
• What is a shopping portal and how to use it
• How to get perks even if you don't have great credit
• Perks of using your credit card over your debt card
• Misconceptions around travel hacking
