    This is going back to the U.S
    2022/06/30
    On this episode, we talk about what led us to return to the US. It is not because our journey is over, it is because we want to set ourselves up to save money by spending the most time in the places we love best. It has not been easy to stop traveling temporarily, but we know that if we want to make travel a sustainable part of our lives, we need to start by planning better. And, let's face it, we also need to figure out how to get some funds coming in. Get bonus content on Patreon

  • This is going to Andalusia, Spain

    This is going to Andalusia, Spain
    2022/06/23

    In this episode we talk about our favorite destination so far - Torremolinos-Málaga, Spain in Adalucía. How much did we like it? Enough to start considering moving there!


    While recording from one of our least favorite destinations so far in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, we cover how we have begun to feel about "biding our time" and "pussyfooting around" while we wait out our visa time away from the Schengen zone (most of Europe). We've noticed a pattern of making mistakes and feeling confused when we try to find places to fill the time. Ultimately this is a waste of our gifts and resources. So, we have decided to go back to the US and start the application process for a long-term stay visa in Spain.

  • This is Going Viral on Social Media

    This is Going Viral on Social Media
    2022/06/15
    In this episode we talk about what happens when you have 100 followers on TikTok and your video ends up with 1.5 million views. We know most people's goal on social media is to go viral. It was for us! But we didn't realize just what we would have to deal with going forward. What do you do in a world where you're only as good as your last video? Most people would say try to replicate that success, but what if you don't want to? Or what if it would change your niche entirely? For us, it honestly made us question how much we really enjoyed the way we were using social media. And with the views come the mean people and idiots which can be hard to deal with for anyone. It is safe to say we went through a range of emotions and it kind of ended up not changing much! Get bonus content on Patreon

  • This is staying connected... or not

    This is staying connected... or not
    2022/06/08

    In this episode we answer another audience question about how we stay in touch with loved ones back home. Admittedly, we could always do better. This way of life is packed full of distractions that make the time seem to fly.


    Do we ever feel disconnected from what is going on with our friends and family back in the U.S. Sometimes.


    But what we have really noticed is that feeling connected means a lot more than just talking frequently. We all have to also feel understood in order to maintain relationships. We open up about each losing a big friendship in our lives over the last year. And it didn't have as much to do with being physically removed. It had more to do more with some people not understanding our new mindsets when it came to deciding to knowingly take a huge risk that we knew would make us happier.

    This is Going (too far!) on an American Road Trip
    2022/05/25
    In this episode, we jump back in time almost a year to the summer of 2021. In July we became officially nomadic. How did we start our first month as nomads? Driving around the Unites States in 30 days, of course. We hit 15 different cities in 14 different states and drove over 7,000 miles over the course of one month. Listen to find out why (???) we did this, how it actually went, and what we learned from it. Get bonus content on Patreon

  • This is Planning while Trying to Stay Present

    This is Planning while Trying to Stay Present
    2022/05/18

    In this episode we address some questions asked by our instagram friends: How do we plan our travel? How do we decide on new destinations? How far in advance do we plan? What draws us to new places? 


    We outline our ever-evolving criteria for choosing destinations and explain the ways it can fluctuate. We used this framework as a jumping off point to discuss some of the surprising feelings that come along with planning. We talk about how hard it can be to stay present while planning an exciting new destination. It is all about seeking balance while leaving space for things to go wrong.
