Next month I am heading to Nice and Monaco on the French Riviera. In travel planning I generally seek to balance earning and burning points and align my hotel stays with best value promotions and low rates. During two weeks in Europe I plan to earn 17,000+ Wyndham Rewards points with two stays through the…
