We're big fans of DIY travel. Curious to learn more? Excellent, let's talk.
A lot of folks ask how we travel so much, particularly because it Costs. So. Much. That’s true, travelling is expensive, or at least it can be. That said, we’ve found a few tricks that make this easier, and we’re happy to share what we’ve learned with you. First, most of what we’ve learned has …
Picture this: you’ve put in the time (and money) to plan your trip. Your flight arrived and you’ve finally made it to your hotel in your corner of paradise to unpack and start exploring! And then, it happens: your smartwatch buzzes on your wrist to let you know it’s almost dead and your e-reader ran …
What we’ve Learned about Travelling, Part 4: Other Thoughts. It’s important to pay attention to your habits while travelling and to make sure you structure things to help reduce your stress levels as much as possible.

Some European countries are closing borders again or introducing other restrictions on movement within their …
What we’ve Learned about Travelling, Part 2: Technology. Did you remember to grab your noise-cancelling headphones before heading out on your next adventure? No? Bummer. This is probably the single most important thing we take with us on the plane, and it was never something we anticipated wanting (or needing). As it turns out, planes …
Okay, let’s talk about traveling, especially in the midst of a pandemic. First, let’s separate traveling (getting from Point A to Point B) from exploring (seeing all there is to see in Point B). We like to do both, but more the latter than the former. Travelling isn’t what it used to be, and for …
