Michelle Gonzalez Makes Luxury Travel Look Easy

Most travelers can’t afford to stay at luxury hotels and book flights in first class, but Michelle González makes it look easy. The author of the travel blog Lax to Luxury is sharing useful tips that will change the way you look at luxury travel.

González is a travel blogger based in Los Angeles, and the name of her blog pays homage to her home airport LAX, where all of her journeys start. She fell in love with traveling at a young age because she often went to Argentina to visit her family, and these trips were the most memorable part of her childhood.

Aviation had a strong presence in her life because her mother was the first female pilot in her province in Argentina, in addition to working as a lawyer full-time. She taught her a lot about commercial airliners, but González also did a lot of her own research and learned how to use miles to her advantage.

Travel quickly became an integral part of her life, and she built an impressive following on TikTok, with over a million followers after she decided to share her tips and tricks with the world.

“I’ve flown millions of miles and traveled to all inhabited continents and nearly 60 countries (with solo travel making up almost half of that count). And this has all been while I was in university or employed full time, meaning I really have to budget the time for all my adventures!” she explains on her blog.
