Trip Report

Where can I go on holiday right now? 

A little different to my normal format, this episode delves into all the different things to think about when booking a holiday during the pandemic. Should we be travelling? When is ok to travel and where is ok for us to go to? What other factors come into play when booking a holiday right now? 

I chat with travel expert Michelle Murray all about options and advice for holiday planning in the coming months.

Thailand and Cambodia - the final part of Josh and Annie's epic around the world trip in 2019/2020. 

In this episode I chat with Josh and Annie about the South East Asia part of their journey. We travel through Thailand and Cambodia, with their trip cut short due to the Covid Pandemic. What made them rethink their travel choices and how it affected local people? What was amazing about their elephant encounter? What was it like being in Cambodia when the pandemic started? 

Listen to the other parts of their trip in Episodes 11, 12 and 13.

Part 3 of Josh and Annie's epic trip. After all the riots and craziness of episode 12, it was time to travel down to Patagonia. Along the way they had many adventures through this amazing continent. What was the next hurdle that they were faced with? What amazing experiences did they partake in in New Zealand and what was the one tour that they recommend in New Zealand? 

Listen to the other parts of their amazing journey in episodes; 11, 12 and 14. 

This is the second part of Josh and Annie's epic around the world honeymoon, where they travelled in June 2019 to Canada, America, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, NZ, Australia, Thailand and Cambodia. 

As their trip was so long their trip report has been split between a few episodes. You can find the first part of their trip in Episode 11. 

In this episode we continue through South America and talk at length about the amazing trip to Machu Picchu. But before then, Josh and Annie encountered riots, tear gas and the start of a few disasters on their journey. 

What crazy situations did they find themselves in not once but a few times? How did they adapt their reactions from living through these so that the next time it unbelievably happened they were able to react quickly and safely? What amazing experiences did they have that made their trip?

Budget Travel on a shoestring with Kieran and Silke  

On today’s travel podcast, I chat with Kieron and Silke. They tell me about their trip through India and South East Asia last year that only ended due to the Covid pandemic. From haggling with tours so that they could save on accommodation by bringing their tent (and then sleeping literally on top of buildings) to off the cuff gigs in exchange for food, Silke and Kieran tell me all their tips and tricks to saving money while on the road. There are lots of gems in this episode. 

How did their instagram presence change from travelling? What opportunities did they find on the road to help fund their trip? What was the amazing cure for Keiron’s sickness whilst travelling when conventional medicine didn’t work?
