Ep.161 Gozo is often described as quieter and slower than Malta’s main island, and that made us almost skip it. But we’re so glad we didn’t. We take you along for two day trips—one with our daughter (featuring a detour to the Blue Lagoon and Comino) and one just the two of us. We’ll show you how we got around, what made the biggest impression, and why some retirees are choosing to live here.

Ep.160 Malta may look like a sunny beach escape, but we included it in our travels because it’s so much more. We spent a month here and uncovered ancient sites, sacred traditions, and small daily joys that took us by surprise. From a 5,000-year-old underground temple to a powerful religious procession, we’re sharing what we spent, where we stayed, and whether Malta might just be Europe’s most overlooked cultural treasure.

Ep.159 We’ve traveled across six continents, but only a handful of places truly changed how we see the world. These are the ones that surprised us, challenged us, and stayed with us long after we left. We hope they inspire you to reflect on the places that have changed you, too.

Ep.158 Full-time travel sounds like the dream to many, but nearly half of the people who try it quietly stop within the first year. Why? And how can you avoid the same fate? This is the episode to watch if you’ve ever considered full-time travel or just want to understand what it really takes. We unpack the emotional costs no one talks about, the hidden pressures that slowly wear people down, and the mindset shift that helped us keep going. You’ll hear what surprised us most, what we wish we’d known before we started, and how we’ve learned to build a life that’s both adventurous and sustainable.

Ep.157 Aging hasn’t felt the way we expected. We thought life would slow down in our 60s — but instead, it’s shifted in ways that still surprise us. In this personal episode, we’re sharing what it really feels like to grow older while living on the road… the trade-offs, the joys, the questions we didn’t know we’d be asking. And the one thing we’d tell our younger selves, if we could go back.

Ep.156 We came for the tacos… and stayed for the pyramids, the hidden murals, and the deep history of Mexico City. There was so much we didn’t know before we arrived — but this sprawling, fascinating city had layers to uncover at every turn. In this episode, we share our personal highlights: where to stay, how to get around (with mobility ratings), what surprised us most, and exactly what we spent during our two-week stay.

Ep.155 We arrived in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico just in time for a 400-year-old festival and left completely enchanted. In this video, we explore the art, history, and hidden layers that make this city unforgettable. From rooftop views and revolutionary roots to indigenous traditions still alive today, San Miguel surprised us at every turn. We’ll show you what moved us most, share mobility tips, and break down exactly what we spent.

Ep.153 Costa Rica’s one of those places you picture in your head—wild jungles, crashing waves, colorful creatures. Why did we base ourselves in the capital city of San José and was that a mistake? That question led to two day trips, and one big lesson we didn’t see coming.  In this video, we’ll share what surprised us, what we would do differently next time, the unforgettable places we explored—and how much it all cost.

Ep.152 Thinking about full-time travel—but feeling stuck by the fear of what could go wrong? We’ve been there. Whether it’s money, missing loved ones, burnout, or just feeling untethered, this video might offer the mindset shift you’ve been looking for. We’re now in our third year of living and traveling full time, and in this episode, we’re sharing the 8 biggest fears and challenges we’ve faced along the way.

Ep.151 These two coastal cities sit side by side — close in distance, but very different in feel. Valparaíso is colorful, creative, a little gritty, a little chaotic, but packed with charm and history. Viña del Mar is more relaxed and polished, with palm trees and long beaches and a little bit flatter, if you want to kick back and relax.

Ep.150 We visited places in Santiago that we never expected to see, thanks to our very generous viewer and unofficial guide, Astrid. Wait until you see all that this beautiful Chilean city has to offer! We'd happily go back to Santiago for a second stay.

Ep.149 Rio de Janeiro is more than beaches. It’s steeped in history and culture, too. From iconic sights like Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain to the colorful Selarón Steps and the historic heart of downtown, we explore the places—and the stories—that shape this city. We would have loved more time here. Rio is fascinating!

Ep.148 After 860 nights in 100 different beds around the world, we’ve learned how to find the right place to stay—every single time. In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on how we choose accommodations as full-time travelers—balancing location, price, and comfort without sacrificing sleep or safety. Whether you're planning a two-week getaway or a year-long journey, this step-by-step guide will help you book smarter, feel more at home, and avoid common travel mistakes.

Ep.147 As full-time travelers, we’ve spent over 700 nights on beds that aren’t our own, and we’ve stayed in all sorts of accommodations. There are pros and cons to every method and we go through the major options in this episode. It’s foundational to our episode next week when we’ll be breaking down our entire process of what we look for in choosing those accommodations.

Ep.146 Since becoming full-time travelers in November 2022 through November 2025, we’ll have taken 75 flights on 34 airlines. Navigating the world of travel can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to finding the best flight deals. We’ve developed effective strategies that work for us, and we’re diving deep into our tried-and-true techniques, covering everything from how to ensure flexibility in your travel plans to tips on avoiding hidden costs.

Ep.145 We tackle one of every traveler's worst nightmares: arriving at your destination only to find that it’s not what you expected. From unsafe neighborhoods and unexpected construction to the wrong season and cultural shocks, we share our personal experiences and practical tips on how to avoid and redeem frustrating travel situations. Learn how to choose the right location and accommodations, and discover strategies for turning a less-than-ideal trip into a meaningful adventure.

Ep.144 Cusco, Peru is rich in history and experiences. As the capital city of the Inca Empire, it’s a unique blend of Incan and Spanish culture. We packed a lot into our time here and share everything you need to know, including how to avoid altitude sickness, must-see sites, and a full breakdown of everything we paid for ten days in Cusco.

Ep.143 We’re here in breathtaking the Sacred Valley, which served as the pulse of the Inca Empire long before Machu Picchu captured the world's imagination. This important region of Peru is more than a beautiful backdrop, it’s a living Inca city. Whether you’re seeking to acclimate before adventuring to Machu Picchu or eager to uncover the hidden gems this area has to offer, we’ll reveal why the Sacred Valley deserves to be a destination in its own right.

Ep.142 Machu Picchu is the jewel of the Inca Empire and a dream destination for many travelers, but the path to experiencing it can often feel overwhelming and complex. At least that’s how we felt. We wanted to have the best experience possible, but there were so many factors to consider. We spent two days in the Lost City of the Incas and learned a LOT. We share everything from the best place to acclimate, the tickets we recommend, what you need to know about transportation, and so much more. At the end we share all our costs.

Ep.141 Join us as we share our heartfelt journey of how we avoided a huge regret that would have changed our lives forever. Discover the personal story behind our channel’s name, even though it doesn’t sound like a travel channel name, and how our quest for connection and adventure led us to embrace life fully. We hope our experiences inspire you to chase your dreams and live a life without regrets.
