When you’re on your vacation, one of the last things you want is to be sick.
But sometimes it happens.
If you do get sick or injured during your travels it can be a challenge to figure out what exactly you should do. Being in a different culture, with different rules, can make us feel even more powerless in the face of our injuries, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
In our travels around the world, we’ve experienced everything from eye infections and the common cold to major knee issues and emergency room visits. Through our various experiences seeking medical assistance in other countries, we’ve come up with 8 tips and tricks if you get sick while traveling.
Have you had an experience seeking medical care in a different country? What tips do you have to share?

The sweet spot between comfort, convenience, and cost.
Everyone has a different travel style, and as you become a more seasoned traveler, that style can change. Today Heather joins me to talk about how our travel style has changed over the last 4 years of travel (much to Heather’s delight).
We share the 6 areas in which we’ve made the biggest changes and we tell you why and how we made those changes.
Travel is different for everyone, the key is to find the sweet spot for you to get the most out of your travel experiences. So come along, and lets TravPack!
Let us know where you make allowances or cutbacks to make your travel style the perfect one for you in the comments below!
We get it all the time. And it’s really not a big secret.
We spend a lot of our time in cheap destinations like Thailand.
“But come on, Thailand can’t really be that cheap”
Oh, but it is.
Today Heather and I lay it all out. How much we’re paying for accommodation, meals, drinks, transportation, and activities during our time in Thailand. You really can eat for a $1, and you really can stay in a nice place for $20 a night. We share all that and much, much more in today’s episode.
If you’re looking to travel, but it’s just “too expensive” have a listen and see how much a vacation in Thailand will really cost you!
Have you been to Thailand? Let us know how much YOU were spending on things like food & activities to give everyone some social proof that Thailand really is that cheap.
Yesterday Alex told us how he ended up in the epicenter of the Arab Spring.
Today he tells us how he escaped it.
From tense moment to tense moment we follow Alex through his lifeline phone call, his escape from the apartment building with a contingent of child guards, through his experiences at the refugee camp, and finally his re-entry into “normal” life and his struggles to cope with everything that had happened.
It’s an amazing story.
This is part two of a two-part interview. Make sure to listen to part one to hear the entirety of Alex’s story.
