About Long
Long joined the Thrifty Traveler team in 2023 after working in higher education. Now, he dedicates his love for racking up credit card points and redeeming them into helping Thrifty Traveler readers do the same.
Long’s love for travel stems from his desire to learn more about his culture as a Vietnamese American. His favorite (and most frequent) destinations take him to Hawaii, Australia, and Vietnam. He’s flown to all three destinations four times in the last year.
