With Labor Day weekend coming up soon, many of our listeners are likely trying to make last-minute travel plans. But how do you make it work when you're strapped for cash? We talk to The Point Guy's Emily McNutt about the latest travel hacks that might just make cash optional and dishes on the travel destinations that are affordable and widely overlooked. Then we turn the topic from travel to making the most of your direct surroundings, as we talk to Kate Harris, author of “Lands of Lost Borders: A Journey On The Silk Road” about her beautiful travel memoir and why she now prefers her own front yard over exotic destinations.
