In this wild episode, Denver and I dive into our travel adventures filled with unexpected twists and valuable life lessons. From Denver’s dreamy yet disastrous trip to Australia—featuring koalas, chlamydia myths, and rental car struggles—to my questionable choices while backpacking through Europe, no stone is left unturned.

Takeaways:

Travel Builds Resilience: Whether it’s losing a passport in Spain or dealing with canceled flights in Australia, travel forces you to think on your feet and stay calm under pressure.

Koala Chlamydia is a Thing: Denver’s zoo trip led to an unexpected deep dive into whether humans can contract chlamydia from koalas (spoiler alert: they can’t…probably).

Hostel Life is Not for the Weak: Andrea’s experience in Amsterdam highlights the challenges (and questionable decisions) that come with budget travel.

Airline Woes Are Universal: Denver’s firsthand experience with canceled flights and unhelpful airline policies proves that air travel frustration knows no borders.

Always Have a Backup Plan: Whether traveling solo or in a group, it’s essential to have a plan for when things inevitably go wrong—because they will.
