    Life in Croatia, Montenegro and Bosnia!

    Life in Croatia, Montenegro and Bosnia!

    During our year of "Living Anywhere with Airbnb", we were fortunate enough to live in the old city of Dubrovnik, Croatia! From our beautiful apartment within the city walls, we took multiple trips to nearby destinations such as Kotor in Montenegro, Mostar in Bosnia and the island of Brac from a weekend in Split. We chat about how easy it was to navigate and drive around these cities and what not to miss in the beautiful part of the world!

    An American Family's Guide to (a small part of) Australia

    An American Family's Guide to (a small part of) Australia

    It's the ONE country I (Colin) would happily move to without any question! It's got both exciting cities and beautiful natural landscapes. Not to mention, iconic wildlife! We discuss road tripping Tasmania, the Great Ocean Road, and what it's like living in Melbourne and gave Australia the total vibe check. Enjoy!

    The Ultimate Vacation to Take in Every Decade of Your Life

    The Ultimate Vacation to Take in Every Decade of Your Life

    Written by Evie Carrick in Travel + Leisure, we gave our family travel spin on this and HAD SO. MUCH. FUN. We think this article is spot on (minus Colin's fear of Iguanas) and we hope you have a blast listening with us dreaming about the trips we'll take as we grow old.

Jamie Lea Miller ,

Light, fun, and informative

I’m so happy I found Collin and Meg when I was searching for family travel podcasts. They are so down to earth and provide really great tips that help with family travel planning. A great addition to my morning walk travel podcast lineup!

BekahSG ,

So Fun and Informative

I look forward to a new show every Wednesday and have been going back to listen to old ones. We are trying to do new trips with our two kids, and this gives us practical tips and motivation.

TheGarzas ,

Entertaining AND Helpful!

Traveling, especially with kids, seems so daunting. Colin and Meg make it sound so easy that my family has dove into planning with excitement instead of anxiety! They are so funny, easy to listen to, and share actual resources that are helpful!
