The Skies The Limit

raveling and experiencing the world is one of the greatest gifts you
can give your kids (and yourself). I read a saying “traveling is the
only thing you spend money on that makes you richer”. But the
problem is, most people put their “bucket list” on hold because
traveling is too expensive! Putting together a fantastic trip that is
also affordable takes creativity...
In comes in Stephanie Antin, business coach, marketing and communications
professional, social media consultant and travel blogger. Stephanie always had
a love of adventure and travel, having spent her 20’s backpacking and living
abroad. Fast forward to today with a family of 5, it is imperative to come up
with creative solutions each and every time she now wants to travel as a family.
A few years ago, Stephanie went on a relentless quest to travel the world with
her family AND keep more of her (and her Emmy award winning reporter-hus-
band’s) hard earned money!
“After my personal quest to see if I could get my family to Thailand for almost
FREE actually happened and then we did it again on a trip to Peru, I knew that
partnering my passions of travel and my analytical mind for research and saving
money could benefit other families. That’s when www.AlmostFreefamilytrav-
el.com became a reality.”
Stephanie is no stranger to business. She spent 15 years as an Emmy award
winning Executive Producer in the Washington, DC and San Diego markets and
opened and ran My Kids Clubhouse, Inc. for 11 years which was San Diego's
best indoor play and learning center for kids under 8. Along with helping fami-
lies realize their dream of travel, she also currently helps families with preventa-
tive health and creating supplemental income by partnering with the largest
online wellness company in North America. (http://www.createhealthyfami-

I know you are probably thinking, free travel is just not possible, but it is possible.
Through AlmostFREEfamilytravel, Stephanie offers her extensive knowledge and
research on travel related incentives that make for almost FREE traveling! She
provides guidance, travel itineraries and discloses the secrets about travel
rewards that the industry makes available yet doesn’t publicize.
“It was a once in a lifetime experience….travelling as a family in Thailand for
almost a month. We washed the elephants, played with the baby tigers, were
blessed by a monk in the temple, ziplined through the rainforest and more. The
experiences, the culture and the time that we spent together as a family are a
treasure we will never forget. And here’s the secret, the trip was almost FREE.
That’s right, almost FREE.”
