My name is Mark and I’m an award travel enthusiast – a specialist in everything points and miles.
My journey into the world of award travel started in 2017 after being in a bad motorbike accident. I was caught in a situation where insurance didn’t cover my medical bills and everything had to go on a credit card. Knowing very little at the time, I wasn’t using the best credit card – but I did end up earning enough points for 2 free international flights back home to visit family.
Since that time, my knowledge of the award travel industry has grown tremendously. Earning points and miles through credit cards has become a major hobby of mine. Had I known then what I know now, those medical bills would have earned me over a million – enough for several free trips around the world.
