Hey, I’m Ryan – the Irish Travel Addict with a serious case of wanderlust and an even bigger love for savings when it comes to travel. I’ve explored over 250 cities across well over 40 countries and four continents so far, from quick weekend escapes to longer adventures – all without blowing the budget. If you love budget travel, or a good deal on your holiday, you’re in the right place.

How I Travel the World on a Budget

Following hundreds of trips (solo, business, backpacking, you name it, I’ve probably done it), these days, my partner and I make every bit of annual leave count. We travel around our 9-5’s, proving it’s absolutely possible to explore the world affordably and often. In 2024, we visited 19 destinations. For 2025, we’re going even bigger – 20 trips and counting.

Budget Travel Guides, City Tips & Money-Saving Hacks

This blog is where I share everything I’ve learned about budget travel – from free travel guides and city itineraries to money-saving hacks and hidden gems worth every penny. My goal? To help you travel smarter, stretch your budget further, and take more trips without sacrificing comfort or adventure.

Why I Started The Irish Travel Addict

What started as a way to share tips with friends and family has become a community for anyone who wants to travel more for less. Whether you’re a seasoned explorer or planning your first getaway, you’ll find practical guides, honest advice, and plenty of inspiration to get you booking your next trip.

As a marketing professional with over 10 years of experience in content marketing, copywriting, CRM, and social media, I know how to tell a good story. 

I’m a travel content creator, based in Ireland but often overseas, with a love for chasing good light, good stories and moments that make you want to book a flight on the spot. With a growing combined social media following of 12,000+, I am a micro-influencer who genuinely enjoys helping people discover new places in a way that feels real, inspiring and totally doable.

I work with brands who want more than the usual curated perfection. If you’ve got a story worth telling, I’ll bring it to life through beautiful POV video, scroll-stopping photos and content that actually connects with your audience rather than shouting at them.

My goal is simple: to create work that feels alive, memorable and worth sharing.

What I Create

If you’ve got an idea, I can help turn it into something people want to watch, read or click on. Here’s what I do best:

• POV travel videos that drop viewers right into the moment
• Photography for social, websites and campaigns
• SEO-friendly travel articles crafted with detail, personality and search performance in mind
• Ghost-copywriting for brands who want their voice sharpened
• Social content packages for launches, experiences or full campaigns
• Destination storytelling for tourism boards and travel brands
• Concept development if you only have a vibe and need someone to run with it

Whether it’s a hotel stay, a travel experience, a local gem or a big adventure, I create content that feels intentional, beautiful and human. With every project I focus on authenticity, storytelling and results that help brands stand out in the crowded travel space.
