    Episode 06 - Cape Town, South Africa

    Howdy Listeners! In this episode we take our last trip in Southern Africa to Cape Town, South Africa. It is a short trip time-wise but a long trip for all the great memories and experiences. Truly one of our best trips, especially if you ask Dante and Isabel. We visit a vineyard from the 1600's, hang out with penguins, eat great food, climb mountains and more! Some of the places mentioned in the pod are here for your internet browsing pleasure! PS - please forgive the screeching in the background, this episode was recorded from our exile-BnB in Singapore after the pool opened up...it happens to be right outside our apartment! Places Mentioned: Constantia Upper Cosy Farmhouse - the great BnB we stayed in. Groot Constantia Winery - from the 1600's a special place to relax, eat and drink The Ice Cream Window - the ice cream shop in Simon's Town Willoughbys - Great place to eat!

    Episode 03 - Nashville, TN

    When presented with a long weekend what do you do? Go to Nashville, of course! Or at least that is what we did. We met up with Charmagne's sister, Maureen and her daughter, Julia for some sightseeing and good food! While we had what turned out to be our worst BnB so far, it presented a learning opportunity for next time, we also had great food, fun distillery tours and nice walks along some of Nashville's creeks.  Take a listen as we recount our adventures in Nashville! Places mentioned in this episode, not endorsed, just mentioned. :) The George Jones restaurant 5 Points Pizza   Goo Goo Clusters Corsair Distillery Nelson's Green Briar Distillery Hattie B's Hot Chicken...the one Dante goes on and on about!

    Episode 01 - Siem Reap pt 1

    In this episode we will cover the first few days of our trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia. Though we moved to China in August of 2019, we have never traveled in Asia as a family, and for Charmagne and I it has been almost 20 years since our last visit to the region. We left Shanghai for Cambodia at the beginning of Chinese New Year. More specifically we flew into Siem Reap January 24, 2020.  We do mention a few different places and activities and promised to link to them.  These are strictly for reference purposes and not endorsements, nor do we receive anything for listing them here.
