    season 3 episode 8: a GWIA declassified travel survival guidedeep breath louise backpacked portugal, spain, france, belgium, the netherlands, england, and scotland all in one month! you’re probably wondering how she did it and looked fabulous at the same time while staying somewhat on budget?? this is her moment to explain, and yours to learn—if you so wish (you’re making the right decision by coming here). over this euro summer in july, louise learned all the important lessons on how to find the cheapest accommodations and flights while still going to some of the nicest spots across those seven countries. did she sleep much? no, of course not (that’s hardly ever a priority in her life). was it worth it?? yes, duh (you can’t help but be happy in the presence of a castle). anyway, if you’re trying to figure out how to plan a european summer—whether to those countries or not—this episode is a great guide to start that process. want proof of louise’s travels beyond her amazing storytelling? follow us on instagram, tiktok, or pinterest @guesswherepodcast

    Thrills and Spills: homeless in Nice, France for 24 hours

    season 3 episode 7: The Amazing Race meets Survivor, louise and amelia’s first 24 hours in Nice felt like a reality TV challenge! In our longest Thrills and Spills yet, we take you through the chaos of being temporarily homeless… and somehow forced to rave all night. was it terrible? absolutely not, it was incredible! would we do it again? also absolutely not. but if you ever find yourself making the same travel mistake, consider this your survival guide on how-to exist from midnight to 4 p.m. with zero accommodations (and still look cute and explore a new country at the same time)! also, meet Amelia, a familiar name on this podcast, but a new voice! she’s traveled the world by boat, plane, and train, and while this isn’t an interview episode, she backpacked across Europe with Louise for a month. most importantly, she survived this wildly unpredictable night by louises side.
