Continuing our series on travel, in this episode (and in the one after), Stephanie and I break down the prepping that has to happen in order to make a trip happen. This is the part that keeps many people from doing more than a weekend away at the in-laws, but it doesn't have to be overwhelming.

We talk about saving money beforehand, scoring the best flights, cutting costs out on the road (it all has to do with when and where), finding the best-for-you housing, and of course, packing light.

We also break down 3 potential options for you to consider, from closest-and-minimal-commitment to dare-to-dream-big.
