This Is Trove: Luxe-Budget Travel, Remote Work & Plant-Based Living
San Agustinillo, Oaxaca, Mexico
What if you could wake up steps from the ocean, sip coffee in a sunny coworking café, explore a new culture, and enjoy delicious plant-based food—without blowing your budget?
Trove is built on a belief: that with the right mindset, tools, and a little creativity, it’s entirely possible to travel the world in comfort, work from anywhere, and stay aligned with your values.
Luxe-budget travel is all about choosing aesthetic, experience, and intentionality—without the luxury price tag. It’s staying in a boutique guesthouse for less than your phone bill back home. It’s sipping fresh coconut water while replying to emails, and enjoying a $2 vegan noodle bowl that rivals any five-star meal.
This is the lifestyle I’ve built—and here, I’ll show you how to build your version of it too.
What Is Luxe-Budget Travel?
San Rocco, Genoa, Italy
Luxe-budget travel is about living well on less—choosing places and experiences that feel elevated, intentional, and fulfilling without draining your bank account.
It’s booking a gorgeous Airbnb with mountain views in northern Vietnam for $18 a night. It’s soaking in a natural hot spring in Budapest or enjoying a full vegan tasting menu in Mexico City for under $10. It’s knowing when to splurge and when to save, and how to create beauty and comfort through thoughtful choices.
This approach doesn’t cut corners—it just cuts unnecessary costs so you can stretch your money and your freedom.
Remote Work: Freedom Without the Burnout
Tranquil Books & Coffee, Hanoi, Vietnam
For years, we were told we had to choose: a stable job or a life of travel. But the rise of remote work shattered that idea—and opened up a new way to live.
Working remotely isn’t just about location freedom. It’s about designing your days. It’s choosing a slow morning in a cozy Vietnamese café over a packed commuter train. It’s logging off and walking to the ocean. It’s being productive without being stuck.
The beauty of remote work is that it supports the luxe-budget lifestyle—because when you’re not rushing through a packed itinerary or paying for last-minute flights, you can travel slower, smarter, and more affordably. Slowing down means lower costs and deeper experiences. It also makes working on the road sustainable—not just possible.
On Trove, I’ll share my favorite digital nomad hubs, coworking spots, tools, and tips for building a rhythm that lets you thrive from anywhere.
Plant-Based Living, Anywhere in the World
Restaurante Kaime, Medellin, Colombia
Eating plant-based is one of the simplest ways to live more consciously—whether it’s for your health, the planet, or the animals. And it’s not only possible on the road, it’s often incredible.
From tofu bánh mì in Vietnam to vegan tacos in Mexico, plant-based food has taken me on some of the most flavorful adventures of my life. You don’t need expensive vegan restaurants to eat well—you just need curiosity, local tips, and sometimes a good translation app.
Plant-based travel is about flexibility, not perfection. I’ll help you find the best vegan street food, decode foreign menus, and connect with cultures through their plant-forward traditions.
Because I’m tired of the narrative that eating consciously has to be expensive.
