While She's Away

Welcome back to another episode! This week is about Rachel & Lauren! Two best friends who decided to travel the world together. I love their story so much because I feel like it's rather unique. Their whole adventure started in 2019 when Rachel went to visit Lauren in Chicago and Lauren proposed an idea to backpack around the world. Rachel obviously agreed to the proposal and 3 months later they set off!

In the episode they share all about their experiences about what they did for money, navigating traveling with another person, and their debacle in South America trying to get back to the USA before the borders closed! If you enjoy don't forget to rate, review, and subscribe!

In this episode, I have a great time talking with Laura Roderickz about her transition from backpacking to living as an expat Mexico. Laura and I met in Vietnam about 2 years ago. This is a really cool conversation for me because she and I could relate in a lot of ways. We talked about that transition of not working and living off of your savings, traveling by feeling your intuition and feelings. Also what the shift looks like as she's settling down in a new city as a traveler, the challenges and beautiful parts of living in Mexico. Tune into today's episode and find out more!
