Budget travel not only saves Kez Williams money, but helps her get an authentic experience out of a place.
The 47-year-old Hong Kong-based Australian has visited 143 United Nations-recognised countries and plans to share some of her creative ideas on travelling frugally in her forthcoming book, Wandering the World on a Shoestring: How to Travel the Globe on $20 a Day (or Less).
In the coming year, she plans to visit the remaining 50 – without a break.
“I intend to not [return] to Hong Kong until I reach that goal,” Williams says on a video call from Darjeeling, India. Hong Kong has been Williams’ home since 2010, after previous spells in Australia, the UK, Ireland, Japan and mainland China.
“Hong Kong was the first place that I felt like I fit in,” she adds. “Everybody’s different in Hong Kong, so everybody who doesn’t fit in fits in.”
The city was the launch pad for her quest to travel the world – which she began in 2015 while working full-time as an English teacher.
