Yesterday Scott shared his experiences traveling with a baby.
Today we talk about the trip itself.
Where have they been? Where did they like? How did they save for the trip? How are they saving money on the road.
Scott from TwelveCountries.com answers all these questions and more while he shares some great advice for anyone planning to travel long term, with, or without, a child.
Below we also have links from the AirBnB’s that Scott and his wife stayed at through their travels that they would recommend to anyone traveling to those countries!

The new plan: 12 countries in 12 months, with a baby.
Today Scott joins me to talk about some of the changes they made to their trip once they’d had Carter, the ups & downs of traveling with a baby, and how to establish a routine on the road.
We also chat about packing only in carry-on’s when you have an infant (see! It can be done!) and how they’ve dealt with criticisms of their choices so far.

Today we’re giving the Extra Pack of Peanuts Team a break and re-running one of our favorite episodes of all time. If you missed it the first time around, now’s your chance to hear Sailing Bo’s awesome story, complete with one of the most hilarious travel mishaps we’ve had yet.
If you didn’t know how to sail but wanted to circumnavigate the globe, what would your first action be?
Bo Cordle bought a sailboat.
That he didn’t really know how to sail (but he had read a book once..).
Today Bo joins us to talk about his dream to sail around the world, how he came up with the idea, what he’s been doing to prepare for his trip (like learning how to sail), and how he ended up getting flogged in a Russian sauna.
We also speak quite a bit about his famous bucket list, which includes everything from singing karaoke to living abroad, and how it helped him to discover his passion.
Bo and I would love to hear what some of the items on YOUR bucket list are, so please leave them in the comments below! We’ll be putting some of ours there as well!
