Let's Voy: Travel Log #0001
Location: Bali, somewhere between my last 5k points matched and my next temple ceremony.
Status: living that tropical luxury life in paradise.
rn: watching the sun paint the rice terraces in gold from this insane villa balcony, incense from the morning prayers still floating through the air. Bali hits different when you're here on your own terms 🌅
ngl, still can't believe I'm here, sipping this fresh coconut (straight from the tree outside, not the fancy cafe kind), watching locals prep for tomorrow's ceremony while planning my next move. timeline got me feeling like I'm living in 3024 fr fr
OKAY BUT HERE'S THE ACTUAL INSANE PART… like how did I even end up here?
Quick backstory: was literally drowning in loyalty points from my parents' old credit cards (iykyk - they're boomers who never used them 💀). Had like:
8k from that one airline everyone's aunts use
2k hotel points that were about to expire (bruh moment)
Random points from when I was trying to be a "responsible adult" with my first credit card
deadass thought these would just sit there forever until they'd expire (like who even has time to figure out all these different programs??)
Then I found this thing called Voy and ngl it changed everything...
The way I just connected all my accounts and BOOM 💥 All those random points? Now they're actual travel credits I can use ANYWHERE. No more of that "sorry this flight is not available for points booking" nonsense. We love a hack.
The math is actually kinda crazy!
Started with: scattered points that were about to expire.
Ended with: enough Voy Travel Credits to help cover my stay here.
Pro tip for the TL: just matched all my points and got an extra bonus because apparently, it's some kind of launch promo?? Not gatekeeping this - go get that alpha.
but wait it gets better…
Been saving up for travel forever (okay since last year but whatever that's forever in planning time). Used Voy Travel Credits for my stay and got way better rates than regular booking sites?? The experience was smoother than my coffee order on apps fr.
And now look at my Bali life…
BALI CHECK:
✓ Morning surf at Berawa
✓ Ceremony vibes at the local temple
✓ Found the secret waterfall that @voytravelfi posted about
✓ Scored an insane villa for 25% off with Voy
✓ Manifested my dream work setup with rice field views
Literally pinching myself rn because this doesn't feel real? Like, yesterday I was temple hopping on my scooter, watching these insane sunset ceremonies at Tanah Lot, and today I'm working from a pool villa I scored through Voy. Is this what they mean by living your best life?
Current sitch:
✓ Matched Points + saved a literal fortune
✓ Next stop: more Bali adventures
✓ Status: about to live my best crypto nomad life
✓ Brain: blown that I can use points for actual stuff now
Added context for the wanderlust fam:
📍 Bali morning routine: sunrise surf, coconut, manifesting
📍 Villa situation: infinity pool overlooking rice fields, healing ceremonies next door
📍 Local food rating: 15/10 would recommend the secret warung down the street
📍 Crypto nomad community here: actually unreal
📍 Current vibe: blessed and unstressed in paradise
Side quest: Found this group of travelers through Voy's Discord who are doing this whole SEA tour using nothing but matched points. Might join their guild (yes we're calling it a guild, deal with it).
gtg - my oat milk latte is getting cold and I need to finish planning my next temple route. Manifest this energy for your next travel arc besties ✨
// Note to future self: match more points before next trip. These Voy travel credits multipliers are actually broken (in a good way).
P.S. If anyone's reading this - yes, this is travel advice. (jk... unless? 👀) P.P.S. The sound of gamelan music from the temple next door is literally the perfect soundtrack for watching my travel credits stack up 🙏
Until next time,
