    Why travel half way across the world when you can see something pretty amazing in your own backyard? Join us as we talk about the beautiful things that are all around us and how to find them!

    You see, during the pandemic when our travel circle grew smaller, we made it our mission to explore things that were close to home that we had never seen before.

  • Episode 3: Let’s Plan a Trip

    My family often jokes with me that my favorite thing about traveling is the planning. Now, this is absolutely untrue, but it is a close second to the actual travel!

    I love finding interesting facts or great places to go. I love learning from others' experiences or mistakes. And I love knowing what I’d like to do, but not be too scheduled!

    So, let’s plan a trip together!

  • Episode 2: Hawaii - The Big Island

    When I say Hawaii, what do you think? Do you think about Waikiki Beach or Pearl Harbor or Honolulu? Most people do.

    But in this episode, we’re going to talk about Hawaii, also known as the Big Island.

    The State of Hawaii is an archipelago, which basically means that there are a lot of islands that make up Hawaii. In fact, there are 132 islands that make up Hawaii, though only 7 are inhabited. Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Molokai, Lanai, Niihau and Hawaii - the Big Island.

    Waikiki Beach, Pearl Harbor and Honolulu are all on Oahu, which is a beautiful island, but a very busy island.

    If you’re like us and like things to be a little calmer, the Big Island is perfect for you and your family!

  • Episode 1: Why We Travel as a Family

    Welcome to our very first podcast! We're so glad you're here.

    I’d like to introduce you to me and my family! I’m Ashley, the mom and chief planner of the group. Then there’s my husband Brent who is the Chief driver and all around calm guy. And then we have our son who we will call Trooper who is always up for an adventure.

    We are a family of travelers, but not the kind that's been to 100 countries, though that would be cool. We're the kind who have full-time jobs and school and businesses and pets and responsibilities. But we still get out and travel as much as we possibly can.

    In this episode, we are going to talk about WHY we travel and WHY you should travel too. But, here's the question, what IS travel? Does it mean flying for 10 hours, or driving down the road?

    We know that traveling with your family can be a disaster, but it doesn't have to be. Let's go!
