Lots of people think once you have one kid you can’t travel, let alone 4 kids and a dog!
Paul Kortmans joins me today to share his family’s experience taking on Mexico in an RV.
We chat about how he (and his kids) ended up with the travel bug, the lightbulb moment when he and his wife realized their kids like to travel just as much as they did, and a story of overcoming business setbacks as a location independent professional.
Whew, that’s a lot! We cover a lot of ground in this podcast including a GENIUS tip for getting your kids used to airplane travel if they’ve never done it before, and a great way to keep them entertained on those long flights!
Do you remember traveling with your parents as a kid? Tell us your favorite memories @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!

Every year we like to make a list of our dream destinations for that year. Sometimes we get around to a couple of them, sometimes we don’t and they live on to the next year’s list, but either way, it’s a great way to start off the year!
Last year Greece and Georgia were both on our lists, and turned out to be some of our favorite experiences from 2016!
Heather and I go through our top 7 destinations (and some honorable mentions), including a couple of surprising destinations from us both!
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!

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!
