[QUOTE="tmount, post: 811718, member: 152"] Joe Cheung discusses Hosted Media Previews with Leslie Harvey of [URL='http://tripswithtykes.com/']Trips with Tykes[/URL] on this episode of the Saverocity Observation Deck. A few highlights: Leslie talks about how Trips with Tykes came about, and her style of travel hacking.

I know the resident [B][URL='https://saverocity.com/thedealmommy/2016/05/18/love-saverocity-readers/']Saverocity Mom Blogger[/URL][/B] was the person that opened my eyes to the “Mom Blogger” space.
