These weren't your super cheap hostels either, but hotels like "the Ritz Carlton in Cancun & W in Midtown Atlanta," she said.
In the vlog, McCurdy filmed a typical day in her life, while staying at the Marriott hotel, which included a free breakfast.
After her chicken enchiladas, fruit plate, herbal tea and coffee were brought to the room for free, she did a Facebook Live for her followers.
The rest of the day may have been spent at a hotel but the video showed it wasn't a holiday.
After breakfast was placed outside the room for housekeeping to tidy, she filmed the work she did.
"A lot of people are confused as to what work looks like for me," she said in the video.
"I travel full-time but there's a lot of things that happen behind the scenes that you guys don't see. But honestly, it's not that exciting."
Most of McCurdy's work involves editing vlogs, which are uploaded to YouTube for over 3,400 subscribers.
On the side, she also sells travel-related self-help courses on her blog and works part-time as a travel agent.
Meanwhile, she also works part-time as a travel agent and will often organise trips for her followers inspired by holidays she's shared online.
"You guys see me having fun and travelling," she said. "That's just a small percentage of what I do every day."
