Wherever We Are with Erin & Joel is about life as it happens—wherever we happen to be. It started on our honeymoon, when we turned on a camera and started documenting the adventure. But we quickly realized this isn’t just a travel show. Sometimes we’re exploring someplace we’ve never been. Sometimes we’re on a train, a ship or a plane. Sometimes we’re home talking about whatever life has thrown our way. No scripts. No big production. Just the two of us sharing the places we go, the things we discover, the people we meet, the things that make us laugh, and probably a few things that don’t go according to plan. We’re Erin & Joel. This is life, Wherever We Are.

    We Were NOT Expecting This in Switzerland!

    Just when we thought Switzerland couldn't get any more surreal, the cows showed up. Day 5 takes us into the Swiss Alps, beginning in Lauterbrunnen—a valley surrounded by mountains, Swiss chalets and a waterfall dropping roughly 1,000 feet from the cliffs above. Everywhere we look feels like a fairy tale. Then we're sitting at a café when we hear cowbells. People start running outside. So, naturally, we follow. Suddenly a procession of decorated cows wearing enormous bells is marching through the village. We'd been thinking about attending a traditional Swiss celebration involving cows, cheese, music and allegedly spontaneous yodeling the next day. Instead, Switzerland brought some of the celebration directly to us. From there we head to Grindelwald, where we sit beneath massive mountains—some still covered with snow—and pretty much just stare at them. Along the way we discover just how expensive Switzerland can be, debate whether cows sleep with their bells on, finalize the next part of our six-week honeymoon and continue our spectacular inability to pronounce Swiss place names.

    We Got Off the Bus… and Found THIS in Switzerland

    Day 4 takes us to Interlaken—but the best part of the day turns out to be somewhere we hadn't really planned on visiting. On the bus ride along Lake Thun, we spotted the St. Beatus Caves high above the lake. So on the way back from Interlaken, we got off the bus and started climbing. Inside were underground waterfalls, stalactites, stalagmites, mirror-like pools and about a kilometer of cave passages open to visitors. By the end, we'd climbed the equivalent of roughly 28 floors. We also watch paragliders descend into Interlaken, discover what a giant hot chocolate does to Joel, hear about an upcoming Swiss festival involving decorated cows and cheese, and continue our ongoing struggle to pronounce the names of the places we're visiting. And technically, we're recording Day 4 on the morning of Day 5—from Lauterbrunnen, with an enormous waterfall outside. We'll get to that next. This is life, Wherever We Are.

    We Found Our Little Piece of Heaven in Switzerland

    We finally made it to Switzerland—and for the first time since the wedding, we're actually slowing down. We're spending five nights on Lake Thun, surrounded by mountains and scenery that almost doesn't look real. Our first hotel room wasn't exactly what Joel had envisioned for the honeymoon, but after mentioning that we were newlyweds, the owner made a little magic happen. Suddenly we had a balcony overlooking Lake Thun and the Swiss Alps. In Episode 3 of Wherever We Are with Erin & Joel, we talk about our first full day in Switzerland, walking seven miles into Thun, Erin's newfound love of dipping fries in curry, and the Panorama Card that gives us free local transportation and opens up even more places to explore. We're already planning Interlaken, Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen and an epic train ride through the Alps. Mostly, though, we're finally sitting still long enough to look around and realize: We're actually on our honeymoon. Of course, neither of us is entirely sure what day it is anymore.

    Erin Finally Finds Out Where We’re Going

    After a jet-lagged day wandering around London, eating fish & chips, and getting stranded when the Tube stopped six miles short of our hotel, we’re back at Heathrow—and it’s time for the first big reveal of the honeymoon. The original idea was to arrive in London, look at the departures board, and spontaneously decide where to go next. Romantic in theory. Possibly stressful in practice. So Joel made a plan instead. In Episode 2 of Wherever We Are with Erin & Joel, Erin finally learns the first real destination of the trip: Switzerland. We’re flying to Zürich, taking the train to Thun, and heading for five nights by the lake with the Swiss Alps, Grindelwald, and Lauterbrunnen ahead of us. We also talk about our Virgin Atlantic Upper Class experience, the little airplane salt-and-pepper shakers that somehow are coming home with us, our ever-changing list of travel must-haves, and why Virgin gave Joel 10,000 points for an entertainment system that ended up working anyway. At this point, we still weren’t sure whether we were recording these conversations just for ourselves or whether anyone else would ever hear them. Now you are. This is life, Wherever We Are.

    We Just Got Married… and Erin Has No Idea Where We’re Going

    We got married a week ago. Now we’re heading out on a six-week honeymoon—and Erin has no idea where we’re going first. Welcome to the very first episode of Wherever We Are with Erin & Joel… except when we recorded this, we didn’t even know that was the name of the show. We’re starting at a hotel near London Heathrow after flying overnight from Tampa. Eventually we’ll make our way to Tuscany, Portugal, Amsterdam and a two-week transatlantic cruise back to the United States. Everything between London and Tuscany? Erin has been kept largely in the dark. This started as a way for us to document our honeymoon. But as we started recording, we wondered if maybe it could become something more—a show about travel, married life, things we discover, things that go wrong, things that make us laugh, and whatever else happens along the way. In our first episode, we’re off to explore London, find some fish & chips, talk about the mystery honeymoon ahead of us, and try to figure out whether we’re making a podcast, a vlog… or nothing at all. At the end of this episode, the show doesn't even have a name yet. Now it does. This is life, Wherever We Are. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
