Follow the Piper wants to motivate you to pack more travel into your life. You don’t need to get on a plane to travel. Instead, we’ll inspire you to get off the couch and see the world, near or far. Be a tourist in your own town. Go to that new restaurant. Explore the museum you’ve passed every day for years and never visited. Make a day trip on Saturday or go away for the weekend. You don’t need a whole week or two to travel. You don’t need to travel full-time to experience the world.

While we want to motivate you to plan your next adventure in Michigan or the Midwest, occasionally you’ll find articles farther afield. So, first, we help you decide where to go, with whom, what to eat, and which activities to pursue. Then, we help you determine why and how to get there cost-effectively.

Our founder and writer, Amy Piper, is a published author and regular contributor to multiple travel outlets. Amy says, “There’s regular travel for weekend trips with my husband and multi-generational trips with the entire family, including my daughter and granddaughters. While my husband and I retired from our day jobs, we can help you plan how to spend your limited vacations and holidays. Wherever I am, I focus on planning Flights. Food. Family Fun!”

Follow the Piper isn’t a budget travel site; however, no one wants to spend more money than necessary. Save money wherever you can without compromising the experience. Get the best value for the money. We want you to be able to do the same, which is why we share our travel tips to help you explore the world within your budget.

And tomorrow, the adventure continues! Follow the Piper!
