About Me

I’m so glad you’ve arrived. My name is Daniel and Credit Cards and Travel is a project that I wanted to share with the world on what interests me the most. I also wanted to create this so that more people understand the basics about some of these amazing cards to hopefully build their own setup one day and travel for almost free, like I do. I hope you enjoy my site and all of the informational content I create.
