Our Top Ten Cities – For Now…. Part 1

Ep-216

Nick and I have been a lot of places over the past however many years.

But somehow I’m pretty sure Nick’s country count keeps beating mine!

Today we discuss our favorite cities around the world. We get through #10 – #5 for both of us today, complete with a ton of honorable mentions (you did know that was gonna happen right?) and a list of places that would NEVER make it onto our Top 10 lists.

Are these the best cities in the world?

I reserve the right to change my mind!

What are your top 10 cities, and which one are you going back to first?

Top 10 Travel Questions Googled in 2015

Ep-214

Last year we started a new tradition, and this year we’re determined to continue it.

Even if the questions weren’t, exactly, what we thought they’d be.

In 2015 we answered the top 10 travel questions that were Googled in 2014, tons of questions about how to travel and make money, how to start a travel blog, and much more along those lines.

This year?

It’s all about domestic travel!

Join us as we muddle through places we’ve never been, but somehow manage to be entertaining about anyway.

It’s probably because Napkins is joining us once again.

So let us know if you’ve been to any of the places mentioned in today’s podcast, we’ve got some road trips to plan!

The Roundtable: Solo Travel

Ep-213

The roundtable is back! Today’s guests include:

and of course, myself!

Today I ask them a question that I hear a lot from listeners, but don’t have much experience with myself.

Traveling Solo

All of our guests today have done extensive solo travel, and they all have a unique perspective to bring to the questions of traveling alone.

They speak about the importance of traveling alone, what you can get out of the experience, and how to meet people on the road. We also discuss a little about traveling with a friend or family member, and how important it is to match travel styles!

Many of you are wanting to take solo trips but might be scared to go at it alone.

But the funny thing is, you’re never alone on the road!

Don’t wait for other people to be ready. Where will your first solo trip take you?
