IG: @lauonthego1 | lauonthego.com Welcome to Lau On The Go, a podcast about all things “on the go.” This pod will start in the travel space, but I’ll definitely be covering other topics like gluten-free eats & mental health. My goal is to encourage a life full of energy & adventure… & honestly, I want people to feel a little less alone in the world. I’m just a twenty whatever year old who has traveled to 20+ countries & lived in 4 cities. I’ve learned a lot about travel hacking & met smart af people along the way. I hope you feel inspired to take risks, follow your dreams, & stay on the go.

No presh to listen tho. Hi lovelies! Similarly to my India episode, in this one I discuss how I got to Türkiye, and more specifically, everything that went WRONG to get me here. My perspective on things going "wrong" has changed so much... I now am so grateful when this happens because I KNOW it's the universe re-shuffling things for the better. This has been proven to me multiple times. Tune in to find out. Also… please GIVE ME FEEDBACK! 3 I want to know what you want to hear about. Trust me, I’ll talk. xo's always, Lau.

    17: i accidentally went on a date on a ryanair flight.

    Instagram: @lauonthego1 | Website: ⁠lauonthego.com⁠ If you enjoy listening to Lau On The Go and want to support, please subscribe and leave 5-stars! 3 In this episode, Lau talks about an unplanned date she went on... thousands of feet in the air on a Ryanair flight over a small cup of overly-priced airline coffee. Some unexpected and uncomfortable events led to this story, but that is often what people bond over, and sometimes the best stories come from times like this. The best part, you get to meet some cool af people, this lovely gentleman included. Do you like little mini travel stories like this? I'll make more. Love u guys. Lau.

    16: travel visas (europe, india, & turkey).

    Instagram: @lauonthego1 | Website: ⁠⁠lauonthego.com⁠⁠ If you enjoy listening to Lau On The Go and want to support, please subscribe and leave 5-stars! 3 In this episode, Lau goes back to practical topics to discuss TRAVEL VISAS... specifically from an American passport holder's POV. Not to rant, but sad fact: only 15% of Americans even hold a passport. An American passport is the 5th strongest in the world... We can enter into 144 countries & territories with no visa, that people from other countries have to jump through months or years of hoops to access. We really don't realize what we have, y'all. Here are the websites/resources discussed in the ep: Do I need a visa or nah?: https://www.passportindex.org/ Turkey Visa: https://www.evisa.gov.tr/en/ India Visa: https://www.india-visa-online.org/types/tourist-visa/ As always, I'm open to feedback, suggestions, topics to speak about... I WILL speak! Love u guys. Lau.

    15: to-do lists.

    Instagram: @lauonthego1 | Website: ⁠lauonthego.com⁠ If you enjoy listening to Lau On The Go and want to support, please subscribe and leave 5-stars! 3 In this episode, Lau talks about how she hates to-do lists. They're overwhelming, boring, and make fun things suck. Lau dives into keeping the fun list separate from the work list or everything will feel like work, changing your perspective on "work work" lists from "to-do's" to "dream fuel", and the power of starting absurdly, microscopically, hilariously small. In this journey of self growth and discovery, there is NO one size fits all and sitting with yourself for long enough to learn what works for you is crucial... there is a way for everyone, you just need to start looking WITHIN for yours. As always, I'm open to feedback, suggestions, topics to speak about... I WILL speak! Love u guys. Lau.

I'm back! Today we're chatting with Hannah, my lovely guest from the hostel I volunteered at in Hvar, Croatia.

What a woman and boy did I feel like a novice traveler when hearing her stories. Anything is possible with travel, and that shows with Hannah.

Follow me here If you enjoy listening to Lau On The Go and want to support, please subscribe and leave 5-stars! 3 Thank you to all my subscribers who have left a review and shared 3 Alright party people, one of my fave people of all time, the ultimate cheerleader, affirmation king, no plan gang extraordinaire, RODNEY is on the pod today! Rodney and I met in Florence and he just returned back to the States from a 3-month backpacking trip around Europe, where he grew his passion for 1. HOW TO PACK LIGHT, and 2. HOW TO CONSERVE MONEY while traveling. Rodney gives VERY PRACTICAL TIPS (which we discuss + listed below) on these topics that I know will be extremely helpful for other new & experienced travelers. Welcome RODNEY to the pod!!! (p.s. I won't lie, we go hard on the inside jokes this episode, so fast forward to 12:16 if you want to get to the travel stuff... but we're fun I swear to god). _________________________________ Timestamps: 1:56 -- how Rodney & I met + our travel journeys 12:16 -- getting to know Rodney (country count, his recent 3-month trip, favorite places + why, where the hottest people in Europe are... the important stuff) 19:29 -- Rodney's tips on PACKING LIGHT 35:31 -- Rodney's tips on SAVING MONEY 57:18 -- lightning round questions 1:00:50 -- wrap-up Rodney on how to PACK LIGHT — Rodney's BACKPACKING BACKPACK (so unfortunately they no longer make the exact model R uses, but linked is a 50L version that is similar and from the same brand) Rodney's fave PACKING CUBES (link) Rodney's fave TRAVEL TOWEL (link) Buy toiletries when you get there Rodney on how to SAVE MONEY — PORTABLE AEROPRESS COFFEE MAKER (link) Accommodation -- hostels (find the best on Hostelworld, then BOOK DIRECTLY ON THE WEBSITE to save $!), meeting people & couch surfing (tell people you meet you’re coming to their city! They might offer their couch :) asking opens up doors, and always offer the same if you’re able) Book flights last second if you can be flexible/travel with no plan Churn credit cards, aka use them for the bonus miles then ditch them (sorry lol). Rodney’s fave CC is Chase Sapphire Preferred (flexible miles for most airlines... ALWAYS check the cost in cash AND in points to find the better deal). Check out the other benefits of each cc (e.g. lounge passes, museum passes, Global Entry, etc) Rodney’s fave TRAVEL RESOURCES: https://thepointsguy.com/ (link) https://www.sleepinginairports.net/ (link) xo, Lau.
