Travelogue | Condé Nast Traveler

There are only so many things you can control at 30,000 feet—and unfortunately, the behavior of other passengers isn’t one of them. On this week’s episode of Travelogue, the podcast of Condé Nast Traveler, editors duke it out over what in-flight behavior irks them most, from the irritating (think unruly, pint-sized seat kickers) to the truly offensive (we’re looking at you, fast foodies).

The definition of "expat" is not as clear-cut as it may first appear—and that becomes, well, very clear in the opening minutes of this episode of Travelogue. What separates, for example, an expat from an immigrant? Is it all about transience versus permanence, or are there other, less straightforward distinctions at play? Whatever the difference, there is a common thread that unites anyone who has lived away from "home," a word that also has its own multiple layers of meaning. This week, we dive deep into what motivates people to settle down, even temporarily, halfway around the world; explore the challenges of joining or creating a community once abroad; and share the unexpected joys that can be found in newness.

We love our parents—and some of us ARE parents—but it's not always easy traveling with your folks. It could be a matter of speed: You want to go heli-skiing in Alaska; they'd prefer to cruise there. Maybe it's a difference in price point, or a question of who pays for what. Should adult children take their parents on vacation, as a thank you for all those years of Disney trips? Or should you split the bill evenly? There's also the question of trip planning: Should one person be in charge, and is it automatically Mom and Dad? It was in the past! Or is it the family member with the youngest child, and therefore, the most restrictions? In this week's Travelogue podcast, we get personal, sharing tried-and-true ways to make family travel something to look forward to every year.

We'd like to think we can plan everything on our own: every hotel room, every cross-cultural interaction, every landmark tour, every local hole-in-the-wall dinner... But if we're really, really honest, even Condé Nast Traveler's editors can admit that sometimes we need some help.

There's no doubt a single meal can make a vacation memorable—but what makes a meal unforgettable? Is it really just about what it does to your taste buds, or the quality of the ingredients? Or does greatness extend beyond the palate: Is it also the setting; the conversations you have; the newness of not only a taste, but also a sight, a sound, a smell? On this week's edition of Travelogue we dissect the role of food as a means of exploration—an entry point into new cultures and multi-sensory experiences.
