When we think of location independence we almost never consider running a brick and mortar business from anywhere in the world.
It is called location independence after all.
Charlie Grosso didn’t let that stop her.
Though Charlie travels the world participating in crazy adventures such as the Mongol Rally and Rickshaw run while earning part of her income as a travel writer and consultant, she also owns a business in New York City.
An art gallery to be exact.
Because honestly, why should the type of lifestyle you want to lead interfere with your passions?
Today Charlie chats with us about freedom, security, adventures, and location independence from the viewpoint of someone who wears a lot of hats. Owning a business isn’t easy, no matter where you live, so why not travel?
Today Heather joins me as we discuss some of the ways that have helped us make headway against jetlag. From eating healthy snacks and avoiding alcohol to finding a monetary motivation to get out of bed in the morning, we’ve tried a lot of strategies over the years, and we’re here to share those with you.
Unfortunately, we haven’t figured out the perfect magic formula yet (as we record this, jetlagged from Italy) and need your help.
What do you do to combat jet lag when traveling? Let us know you’re strategies, we’re always willing to be guinea pigs!
Since you already know that we’re super tourists (and super nerdy) we decided to take it a step farther and list of our favorite tourist destinations around the world.
In for a penny, in for a pound.
These are the places that are seen by many independent travelers to be a little too full of tourists for their tastes.
We disagree.
Sometimes places are so packed with tourists because they’re full of amazing and cool things that everyone should make an effort to see and experience.
Have you been to a super touristy destination that we left off our list? Let us know! You know us, we’re always looking for places to add to our travel lists!
We’re officially the least cool independent travelers out there. Help spread the word and find us some more “touristy” destinations to visit by clicking “Tweet This” below:

Yesterday Warren and Betsy shared amazing advice on starting your travel journey and finding a home base that you absolutely love.
Today we continue the trend of great advice and discuss a very important topic to me personally and I’m sure to a lot of you as well!
Relationships on the road.
Namely, making sure that you and your partner are on the same page, and happy during your travels. Because, as those of us who have traveled as part of a couple know, when you spend 24 hours a day with the same person in and out on top of the highs and lows of travel, tensions can rise quickly.
The advice that Warren and Betsy have to share on this topic is unbeatable for its wisdom and accuracy!
Do you and your partner use any of the tips that Warren and Betsy share? Different ones? Let me know how they work for you in the comments below!
Warren and Betsy absolutely nailed it with the advice in today’s episode about relationships and travel. Show them some love and click “Tweet This” below to spread the message!
Would you rather eat Thai food tonight, or go eat food in Thailand?
After seeing some of their friends having health issues in their 30’s Warren and Betsy Talbot sat down to a serious conversation to decide what they wanted their life to be like.
The next day they started Married with Luggage and laid out a budget.
And two years later they set out on around the world trip which has turned them to full-time travelers.
In this portion of our interview, Warren and Betsy chat about their decision to become nomadic, getting out on the road, and how, 4 years later, they bought a house in Spain to function as their home base.
With great advice that I know I’ll be following soon, this is an interview for people on all stages of their journey. From those considering the lifestyle to those who have been on the road for a while, there is something here for everyone!
It’s not “the more you travel, the better you get at it” it’s the sloppier you get!
Jason’s infamous words when we told him of our recent slew of travel mishaps.
And boy was he right.
Within 2 hours of landing in Italy, if it could go wrong, it did. And the worst part was, most of it could have been avoided!
Today Heather joins me while we recount our experience of our first hours in Italy, and hopefully remind everyone, and especially ourselves, that no one is exempt from “silly” travel mistakes.
But something good comes out of every experience, and what would travel be without some ridiculous mishaps?
