Nate Menninger has spent the past several months relying on the kindness of strangers. From dogs in the wilderness to someone he met once for an hour becoming his travel buddy, it’s all about trust.
Pushing your comfort zone can be tough no matter what that means for you. Maybe buying that plane ticket does it, maybe running with the bulls, or showing up somewhere with nowhere to stay.
The best part though is coming through that challenge and growing, learning more about yourself and the people around you as you go on these crazy adventures.
Nate joins me today to share some of his stories about the people he’s met along the way, and how he’s pushed his comfort zone time and time again.
How have you pushed your comfort zone through travel? Share your story with me @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!

If you’ve listened before, you’ll remember me not being a big fan of London, but I’ve changed my tune quite a bit!

Today Heather joins me to talk about our favorite areas of the city, some of the best places to eat, and a TON of things to do. From free museums (yes, free!) to a great way to see shows for cheap, we have some great tips for the budget traveler in today’s episode!

This week we’re co-hosting an awesome episode from our other podcast, Location Indie!
Jason and I decided to record a whole podcast about travel and we thought, well, why not post this to our travel sites too?
So today we chat about our top 5 travel dreams each, with, of course, a million honorable mentions. Because when you start talking about travel the list only ever gets bigger!
She didn’t let it stop her from moving to Hawaii to go to college, though! Or the subsequent travel bug.
Today Sarah joins me to chat about her experience traveling with anxiety, some of the mechanisms she uses to cope, and how you can help if you’re traveling with someone who has anxiety.
It’s not easy to travel with anxiety, but what you’ll find on the other end might just be worth the fight.
When you go on holiday, you do the things you like to do. Turns out Bill Ker (Doc) really enjoys working out, so he started a tour company to do just that.
It all started when Bill decided to scratch his own itch and workout a bit while he was traveling the world. It definitely makes you feel a little less bad about all that beer!
Cue a minimum viable product and suddenly Doc’s got his tour company off the ground. Today he shares some of his best workouts while on the road, why all you need is a jump rope and shows how combining your passions can turn out pretty well!
What do you do to stay fit while you travel? Let me know @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!
