Each week I discuss itineraries, travel hacks, money-saving tips, and practical advice, all recorded during a 14-month family trip to Europe and Southeast Asia. Each show is a travel guide for a place we visited. Now that we are back home in the States, the episodes are less frequent, but I will try to keep the travel content coming for 2024 and will have some flashback episodes in case you missed Vietnam, Turkey, Thailand, Spain, Czech Republic, Italy, England, Iceland, Sweden, and others during the first airing.
