Our best and worst travel moments of 2021 (year in review with Jeff, Diego and Marisa) | Ep 24

48 minutes

Join us as we take a look back at the best and worst moments of our 2021 travels

On Instagram, life as a digital nomad looks perfect…the epic destinations, the freedom, the adventures. However, while digital nomad life is filled with some of the most amazing “pinch me” moments, it doesn’t come without its drawbacks.

On the Digital Nomad Experts podcast, we like to share both the highs AND the true lows with you…so that you have real expectations of what your life will be like when you begin living as a digital nomad.

As 2021 comes to an end, Jeff, Diego and Marisa take a look back at 2021, and share some of their favorite moments, destinations and experiences…as well as some of their least favorite experiences and travel fuckups. You'll get a lot of laughs as these 3 goofballs recap the good, the bad, and the ugly of their travels this year.

By the end of the episode, you’ll learn:

The favorite & least favorite places that they each lived this year (find out which place Jeff loved so much that he went back for a THIRD time, and which place most people LOVE, but left him with “unadulterated anger and frustration”)

The most underrated places they each lived (Diego said he thinks this place will explode soon, as it’s “the Bali of Latin America”)

The weirdest foods they each ate (we’ve all tried this insect in Mexico…)

The most thrilling adventures they each experienced (Diego’s was the coolest thing he’ll NEVER do again)

Their favorite accommodations that they lived in (find out in which destination Diego stayed in a villa that Shakira has also stayed in multiple times)

The WORST accommodations they accidentally found themselves in (learn about the “Airbnb fuckery" that led Jeff to a terribly dark apartment in Barcelona, and the dark basement I accidentally found myself staying at in Latvia)

Their very favorite moments as digital nomads this year (Diego’s favorite moment was the same moment he genuinely asked his guide - “Are we going to die?”)

Their LOWEST travel moments (some rock bottom health moments for Marisa and Jeff)

The most memorable people they each met this year (miraculously, of all the people in the WHOLE entire world, Jeff and Diego chose the SAME person as the most memorable in all of their travels!)

Their biggest travel fuckups of the year (Jeff had two missed flights, Diego almost got deported back home, and I almost ended up on a train to the wrong country)

What they've got in store for travel plans in 2022 (Egypt, Mauritius and Bali may or may not be on the agenda)

And so much more...
