    Trying New Foods While Traveling

    / Comments Off on Trying New Foods While Traveling

    When we think of folks who really love to travel, we think of open mindedness. We are very aware that there are lots of food restrictions due to allergies or choices people make about what they will and won’t eat (vegan, vegetarian, etc) however travelling does introduce us to other cultures and ways of life and that includes food! Our tip this week is discussing branching out from what you normally eat and immerse yourself in a food experience.  It doesn’t have to be every meal but if you haven’t eaten like a local at least, were you really there? Be adventurous for at least one meal on your travels…

    How To Choose Clothing For Travel

    / Comments Off on How To Choose Clothing For Travel

    We are all out of practice travelling and packing has always been a conundrum for some – I mean what do you pack for a longer trip with multiple weather scenarios? Jenn talks about how she decides what to pack and she gets ready for her next big trip, what she is having trouble deciding between. Our advice is less pants than shirts and try to also book at least one accommodation, possibly in the middle of your trip, that has access to a washing machine! (although the sink will do in a pinch)
