Today, Jason joins me as we discuss the benefits of traveling during different times of the year. We outline what usually makes a shoulder season or off-peak season and discuss the pros (and cons) of traveling during each.
We also list some of our favorite off-season destinations along with the reasons why they’re so awesome (saving money, avoiding crowds, etc.). What are some of YOUR favorite off-season destinations?

When you’re at home you can retreat, go hang out with your friends, just lose yourself in the aspects of daily life, but on the road that’s all stripped away.
Today Jason interviews Heather and I about how we handle taking our relationship on the road. How we deal with decision making, money, and fighting as we travel around the world.
The highs are really high, and the lows can be really low, but we wouldn’t trade it for anything!
What are some of your tips for traveling on the road as a couple?
