    Why You Should Get an Extra Driver on Your Car Rental

    / Comments Off on Why You Should Get an Extra Driver on Your Car Rental

    Peter and Meggan recently went to Portugal and rented their car from ‘Sicily by Car’ and overall had a great experience, and for the first time, they added a second driver.

There are four major benefits we cover in the episode to help you see why it could be important if you are able to afford it and have other drivers with you who have licenses. And luckily for Meggan, her intuition paid off, and for the first time ever, adding a…

    Well friends, after 6 years we decided to spend some time together outside of recording – look at us go! It was the depths of winter, and Jenn felt it was time to maybe book something, so we found a place, got it on the books and looked forward to it for actual months. We thought we should have a ‘chat, laugh and read’ weekend, and we ended up with so much more, including amazing meals and a chance run-in with one of our favourite authors! Tune in to this episode as we rehash our first experience of spending time together and hear how things turned out.  What did we…

    If you have listened to the podcast for a while, you know that we do not have children, so we were thrilled when Riana from Teaspoon of Adventure reached out wanting to discuss travel with children. Riana, her husband, new baby and their dog set out on a nine-month adventure during parental leave to explore some of Europe. This was an idea that sprouted quite a few years before they decided to have a child, and they saved and planned and dreamed. Riana had travelled extensively prior to becoming a mother and wanted to spend time out in the world with her family, and that dream became a reality. Tune…
