I’ve always been a saver. As a student I lived frugally and was constantly setting up little businesses such as a moving-in service for freshers so that I could graduate in profit. My favourite gourmet experience has always been Heinz spaghetti hoops.
Now, despite earning a decent salary, I lead a life of austerity as all my spare time and money are consumed by my travel blog Spaghetti Traveller, named for that spaghetti hoops passion.
I started it six years ago while working for a travel agent and back then thought it would be cool to eat a can of hoops in every new place I visited. It would have been an economical way to eat out, but I kept forgetting to pack a supply.
My job back then was to optimise the website so I thought it would give me useful experience to try building my own. I’d just returned from a holiday in the US which was the high point of my life and gave me an itch to see the world, so it seemed obvious to use the website to motivate and record my trips.
