Scott Manning and his wife had been planning this trip for quite some time when they found out they were pregnant.
They went anyway.
The new plan: 12 countries in 12 months, with a baby.
Today Scott joins me to talk about some of the changes they made to their trip once they’d had Carter, the ups & downs of traveling with a baby, and how to establish a routine on the road.
We also chat about packing only in carry-on’s when you have an infant (see! It can be done!) and how they’ve dealt with criticisms of their choices so far.
Have you ever traveled with a baby? What are some of your best tips?

Today we’re giving the Extra Pack of Peanuts Team a break and re-running one of our favorite episodes of all time. If you missed it the first time around, now’s your chance to hear Sailing Bo’s awesome story, complete with one of the most hilarious travel mishaps we’ve had yet.
If you didn’t know how to sail but wanted to circumnavigate the globe, what would your first action be?
Bo Cordle bought a sailboat.
That he didn’t really know how to sail (but he had read a book once..).
Today Bo joins us to talk about his dream to sail around the world, how he came up with the idea, what he’s been doing to prepare for his trip (like learning how to sail), and how he ended up getting flogged in a Russian sauna.
We also speak quite a bit about his famous bucket list, which includes everything from singing karaoke to living abroad, and how it helped him to discover his passion.
Bo and I would love to hear what some of the items on YOUR bucket list are, so please leave them in the comments below! We’ll be putting some of ours there as well!

Yesterday, Robb and David talked about their strategies for saving up money for their various trips around the globe.
Today, we talk about how they’re saving money on their current, open-ended trip. We discuss their $50 dollar a day budget, how they manage their money while on the road, and how flexibility plays into it, both for better and for worse.
These guys make Heather and I look like we frivolously throw our money around (despite our loose budgeting strategies)! We’ve learned a lot from them over the past couple of weeks, and hopefully, you’ll learn something new as well!
