People have lots of reasons that they travel, but for us what makes traveling awesome are the people.
Getting a chance to hang out with the locals usually leads to some of the best moments of our trips. For that reason, we recorded the 16 ways to meet locals over on Jason’s podcast Zero to Travel.
As a sister podcast to that episode, we thought we’d share our favorite moments where spending time with the locals filled our tummies and our hearts, with joy.
How do you meet the locals when you travel? What stories do you have to share?
We were lucky enough this year to be able to spend most of 2014 traveling.
And in honor of the holidays and sharing our gratitude we thought we’d go through our Top 14 experiences of 2014.
Today we’ll discuss the first half of our favorite experiences including the rare experience of being cold in Bali, waterfalls that are nicknamed “The Spiderman waterfalls”, and the wonderful experience of making authentic Italian pizza.
Check back tomorrow for even crazier stories and experiences from a year that was FULL of travel!
What are some of your favorite travel experiences from 2014?
Very few people actually look forward to those 20+ hour travel days.
Unless of course, they’re in business class.
With long flights, horrendous layovers, and no sleep, those days go down as the price we pay for travel.
But they don’t have to be!
Today Heather joins me to share some tips & tricks to making those travel days more enjoyable. From the day before your trip to finding ways to make sleep possible, even in economy class, we’ve got tips that will help every traveler make the most out of the “lost days” of travel.
What are your recommendations for getting through long-haul flights intact?
And one of those bad things is the attachment to our computers. To the internet. This needs to always be connected, to always be ready to solve any and all problems that come up with our businesses.
Yet there’s a solution. Jason Moore, host of the Zero to Travel podcast and often co-host here is BACK.
He’s been out on a one-month digital sabbatical. Today he joins us to chat about his experience, how he managed to arrange such a thing, and what he’s taking away from the experience.
Accounts vary dramatically. Is Bali really cheap? Or really expensive?
The truth lies somewhere in the middle. You can visit Bali for cheap and still be comfortable, or if you have a higher budget, you can live like a king.
Today Heather joins me to discuss what we’ve noticed about the average prices of accommodations, food, activities and more in Bali.
Bali can be done in any way you please, but it is true, Bali really can be that cheap.
