About Me
NC & the South: some try to stereotype it as boring, backwoods, or ignorant. But as someone who was born & bred here, I have found NC to be a stunning state to live in with endless educational, financial, & cultural resources.
All that said, traveling & exploring can be expensive if you’re not careful. But I plan to be careful as I share family & frugal-friendly ideas, resources, destinations, & businesses across NC you can visit for fun without sacrificing your budget!
My name is Emily. My husband, David, & I were born & raised in the Central Piedmont of NC. We love exploring & we love to live frugally. Trust us, the two lifestyles can co-exist & we can’t wait to go exploring with you!
