Mike & Suzie: Health and Fitness on the Road

Ep-239

Mike & Suzie run an awesome podcast on health and fitness.

They also happen to be digital nomads who have spent the last year traveling and working from the road. I bet they have a list of recording places just as bizarre as our own!

Today they join me here on the show to discuss health and fitness on the road. How to keep a routine while you’re traveling, why diets are crap, and how there’s no such thing as failing.

We also go into which countries they found it harder to eat healthily and a complete bodyweight workout that doesn’t require any equipment. Perfectly suited for those small hotel rooms you’re sure to find yourself in!

If you’re interested Heather & I were on the Mike and Suzie show a while back, you can check out that episode here.

The Great Debate: Slow vs. Fast Travel

Ep-238

Slow vs. Fast Travel.

It’s a debate as old as time, and here to argue it with me is Jason from the Zero to Travel podcast!

We start out with the trip that sparked the debate, one that could be considered either fast or slow depending on how you define each of those, but that for me is actually pretty slow.

There are points for both sides, which actually saves you money? Which gets you the best food? What gets you the most out of your trip?

But remember, if you’re traveling, you’re already winning!

Let us know if you have any other topics you’d like for a debate, we’re happy to throw down anytime!

Destination Diary – Chicago

Ep-236

Part 1

As you may have heard from our recent Solo Travel Challenge posts, I spend 3 days in Chicago.

And I loved it!

Listener and superfan Kevin took the time to show me around the city and I ate as much as humanly possible. In the name of research of course!

Today Kevin joins me on the podcast to share his love and knowledge of the Chicago food scene, drink scene, and to express some thoughts on why Chicago is actually BETTER than New York City! And, of course, to present us with some fun facts!

Traveling Solo

Ep-235

Heather and I usually travel together. But what we’ve never done is take two solo travel trips at the same time.

I went to Chicago, she went to Miami.

And we had very different experiences.

But they were both awesome.

Today Napkins (#LoveNapkins) joins us to talk about what it’s like to travel solo, what we learned about ourselves, and what tips we have for others hoping to do something similar.

The Post Travel Blues

Ep-234

You’ve been away on a trip.

Maybe it’s just been a weekend, or a week, months, or even a year.

But now your home and everything just seems a bit…bland.

Coming home from a trip can be a happy time, but sometimes mixed in with that happiness is a little (or a lot) of sadness. Whether it’s “reverse” culture shock, or just being bummed that you’re not on the beach anymore, being home can cause some mixed feelings.

We’ve felt it, more than once, and here are 14 ways that we try to deal with the post-travel blues.
