2016 Year in Review: Stats and Superlatives

ep-260

Click here to download this episode.

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!

How many places did you sleep in 2016? Let us know if you beat us this year! Message us on Instagram at @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!

Planning for the upcoming year can be tough. There are endless possibilities, but you don’t want to overload yourself!

Enter, the Rosebud method.

Jason Moore joins me today to chat about our method for planning out the upcoming year and how it helps us focus on what’s really important to us!

We chat about a couple of the big wins from 2016, the not so big wins from 2016, and a couple of our goals looking forward to 2017. Our method is super simple and easy to follow along with so grab some pen & paper (or open your note-taking program) and start the brain dump!
