Save this (𝐩𝐭 𝟐) 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐬 - Taking care of expenses on a trip is probably one of the most tedious thing ever!! Above anything, get yourself a business credit card. It doesn't have to be a business credit card per se but it's a credit card that you use separately from your personal, everyday expenses.
Even better, if you're a travel blogger or you travel often and the card has Priority Pass perks for the airport, it's going to make traveling way easier! Once you have a "business" credit card, there's a few ways to track your expenses.
(1) Christine (@tourdelust) syncs her @quickbooks program to her card. She'll use her card as much as possible so everything gets done automatically without any manual entries.
(2) I use @keesdeboekhouder in the Netherlands who is an accounting company specifically for creatives. They have an app that allows me to snap pics of my receipts and input it right into my accounting program. This was a huge upgrade from what I used to do, which is next.
(3) When I first started blogging, I was really careful of expenses and didn't want to pay for a program or an accountant. I created a simple excel sheet with expenses under the same categories as what's on US Tax Form Schedule C (to make it easier to do taxes at year end). I saved all my receipts from a trip, went home, took photos of them all, put all the pics into a folder, then logged all my expenses in my simple excel sheet. Was this helpful? Ask me anything about the business side or blogging. Happy to answer in a post or via stories 🙌 🙋‍♀️ Want more blogging and content creating tips? Hi I’m @sarchetrit! I post helpful business tips for bloggers along with travel inspo and Korean food tips!

Hey it's Mike taking over Sarah's account today. You asked Sarah some questions about me on her stories so let's get into them. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐡?
Beautiful, Warrior + Empathetic
𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭?
Sarah says she tried to talk to me in class but I apparently ignored her. I was a sleepy, unaware kid in high school. But we really met and hung out a week before I went to Israel for a semester abroad in high school. We hung out everyday for 7 days straight and were inseparable. We continued to keep in touch long distance. I didn't even talk to any of my other friends back home, only her. We started dating the day I got back.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐒𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐡?
Why are all these questions about Sarah?! Jk. Sarah always strives for growth, and when she sees a new way to grow, she goes about it in the most admirable way. It's really inspiring to me. When she sets her mind on growth, it pushes us both forward.
𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐮𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐚?
I am too good looking for Instagram. I don’t want to break the Internet.
𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐣𝐨𝐛 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐠𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝?
I kind of feel like we did that. We left NYC and all our family behind to move to Amsterdam to live and travel more easily around Europe. I travel about 30+ days a year so in terms of traveling full-time, no I don't want to quit. I'm really happy with our situation.
𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦?
I'm from Connecticut, USA where Sarah and I met in high school. In terms of ethnicity, my mom is Polish-Russian (American) and my dad is from Morocco. This was fun! What country are you from? (enjoy the photo dump)

🍜 “ A bowl is most useful when it's empty" La

🍜 “ A bowl is most useful when it's empty" Lao Tzu - Like many of my Asian American brothers and sisters, I've been experiencing waves of anger, fear and sadness... and when I think it's all over, a larger wave of all those emotions washes over me again. Soooo... I'm thinking it's time to start meditating again and clear my mind. My "bowl" has been overflowing with a million thoughts and feelings and hasn't been as useful as usual.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧘‍♀️ Back in June 2020, I shared three meditation apps created by Black entrepreneurs but of those three, @liberatemeditation sticks out in my mind the most for this moment. Although it advertises itself as a meditation app "for [Black people], by [Black people]" and is really intended for the Black community to have a safe space to practice meditation, it has content created by a diverse group of BIPOC meditation teachers and "anyone is welcome to use Liberate".
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❤️ The app goes beyond the topics normally covered by other meditation apps such as micro-aggressions BIPOC face, internalized racism and ancestral healing. I am blown away because it even covers masculinity!!! (Swipe left for screenshot of topics).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✊🏽 To my BIPOC family, please take care of your mental health. I hope this app helps you in areas that your therapists cannot. I’ve experienced firsthand the race-related boundaries my therapist seems unable to cross. Some things are truly best taught from experience, and this app has so many lessons for healing and sitting with our feelings.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤍 Btw do you have any tips for me on meditating and/or self care? I am struggling. I am showing up on Instagram bc it wouldn’t be right of me to fall silent and hide away in my safe corner of the world. But I def need help.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙏 Thank you for supporting me, an Asian female creator! Together we can #stopaapihate

🧖‍♀️PS Can I point out my hair in the 2nd pic? Had a good hair day! Hehe...

5 Ways to Use Gochujang (Korean Red Pepper Paste).

5 Ways to Use Gochujang (Korean Red Pepper Paste). 🌶️What do you like to eat gochujang with? Besides what I mentioned above, you can use it simply as a dressing for cucumbers or lettuce and have that as a snack. Someone from Tik Tok said that they use it to make foods spicy in lieu of tomato paste! How do you use it? Comment below and also check out other people’s comments as they share their tips! I will compile these in a new video to help you even more🤍 🇰🇷If you didn't know~ Gochujang is a sweet, savory and spicy fermented condiment from South Korea, which is where my parents came from. They moved to New York City in the late 70s and that's where my brother, sister and I were born.
Unfortunately they both passed away when I was a child and I lost a lot of my Korean heritage with them.
I've been reconnecting with my heritage as I've gotten older and one of my favorite ways is through food! I invite you to learn about Korean culture with me through food.
𝘍𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘭𝘺 𝘒𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰𝘴 👉 @sarchetrit. 🇰🇷I'll also be sharing my struggles and journey of being a proud Korean-American woman. Looking forward to growing together and helping you cook easy Korean food! 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘤𝘩 👉 @sarchetrit #stopaapihate

"But mom, my shoes aren't on the bed! See!" ~ my a

"But mom, my shoes aren't on the bed! See!" ~ my annoying 7 year old self when my mom asked me to not wear shoes on the bed. Who else thought they were SO smart? 😆ad: 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐦𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐦 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐫 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧? About a year ago, Mike and I biked past a bridge house, which was previously used to control the bridges going up and down for boats to past by. He told me they had converted all 28 of them into hotel suites and I was WOWED! I wanted to stay in one so bad considering how unique each one is.
But living in Amsterdam, staying in a hotel seemed kind of silly... That is until now! We needed a break from our apartment so embarked on a fun staycation and booked hotel room # 301 Westerdoksbrug.
I picked this location because it's only about 10 minute walk to the EYE museum in the Noord (including the free ferry) and about a 7 minute walk to the UNESCO Heritage neighborhood of Amsterdam. We loved walking around and leisurely exploring these neighborhoods in a new way. The hotel suite itself was so comfortable. They really paid attention to every little detail to make sure you have the utmost privacy and comfort. For example, the inside curtain wraps all the way around so you're fully enclosed at night without having to open/close all the blinds. We left the curtain slightly open though so we'd have a lit up view of the A'dam Tower. If you choose this location, you can walk 15 minutes and get the best ramen in Amsterdam at @ramenkingdom or order from them on UberEats (Get $15 off your first order with code 'eats-ufs31'). We got the veggie + pork ramen, and surprisingly, the veggie won for both of us! The broth is soo creamy. After staying here, I now want to check out all 27 locations to discover more parts of Amsterdam at my own pace. The best part for quarantine it's all covid-safe with keyless entry.
