  • Episode 101: New York City

    We’ve talked before about the iconic city of New York. If you’re a theater buff like a few of the Outlander agents & their families, Hamilton may have convinced you that it’s the Greatest City in the World! Well, it has a lot of competition, but it definitely ranks high on the list. Elizabeth and her family visited again recently (and got to see Hamilton!), and since there is so much to see there we know there must have been some things we left out in our previous episode. So this week we return to the Big Apple!

    What do you love about New York? Let us know!

  • Episode 100: What We’ve Learned in 100 Episodes

    We are beyond thrilled to be recording our 100th Episode! When we started recording this back in 2014 we weren’t sure how we’d keep coming up with new travel topics, but it turns out that new things are coming out all the time! From exciting itineraries, to world events, to bucket list trips, there is always something to talk about. We thought it would be fun to take a look back and remember some of the things that surprised us along the way.

    We’d love to hear from you too if there is anything we’ve talked about that surprised or inspired you!

    This week we are excited to welcome Lily Mendoza to the show. Disney’s Aulani Resort is located on the island of O’ahu. It opened in 2011 and showcases the Hawaiian culture and beauty while throwing in what we like to call the “Disney difference”.
