Juan Escobar from @juanricardojr recently took an incredible trip to the Maldives, where he proposed to his now-fiance Sarah (congrats again, guys!).  In this episode, Juan and I discuss which cards he used to book his first-class flights and overwater bungalow at the St. Regis Maldives, what the health and safety procedures around Covid-19 were like for his trip, and how Juan goes about travel hacking large purchases from distressed houses to engagement rings. Also, if you are looking at planning a wedding anytime soon, please make sure you are strategically allocating all of that wedding spend so that you can get your honeymoon for free like Juan is going to do!
