In celebration of the launch of this year’s Paradise Pack, we decided to put together this 777 series. Now, you are probably wondering ‘What’s with the 7’s?’ well this is our 7 most memorable experiences in our 7 years of location independence over the next 7 days.
Today we are talking about a trip that allowed us each to pick one destination that we have always wanted to go to, how we decided, and did they live up to our expectations (hint: they absolutely did). Come with us as we unpack our love for Georgia & Greece.
In this episode, Heather and I go through our list of top summer destinations around the globe. From surprising to serene, vibrant to verdant, and interesting to impactful, there’s a great destination for everyone.
It’s time to imagine some sun and water and plan that summer trip!

Every year we spend (a little too much) time searching through our emails to find out where we were every night that year. Figuring out how many miles we traveled, how many miles we flew, how many beds we slept in, and of course how many countries and states we visited.
Even though that takes us hours of work, it only takes up about 10 minutes of audio. Not quite fair! So we pair it with something else. Our superlatives.
What were the best hotels, the worst hotels? What was the craziest thing we did this year? The most underwhelming? The most surprising?
Listen to today’s episode to find out!
There will be two more 2016 in Review episodes coming over the next couple of weeks, our best food & drinks as well as our best experiences, so stay tuned!

If you’ve been following our adventures, you’ve probably seen some awesome pictures from our 2 month trip around Europe.
Heather and I both picked one location we really wanted to go and put together an, admittedly weird, itinerary.
We went to:
Norway Georgia (the country!) Greece England Scotland
We ran the gamut of weather, prices, and foods on our travels and today we’re here to talk about our top 5 foods, accommodations, and experiences from our trip. Including how many pounds we’ve collectively gained!
