    We made it to day 14 despite all the fish stacked against us. Tune in to Hotel Quarantine in Sydney for our last night locked inside. We dive into how it’s looking from inside Australia looking out, travel document must-haves, QLD border passes, and what finishing up with the police and doctors is like for the last day. Fingers crossed our son doesn’t decide to clear his throat at the worst possible time again.

    We got a surprise call that we were not expecting and had three days to get our shit together and get to San Fran to fly home to Australia. Join us from Hotel Quarantine in Sydney as we talk about what it was like from start to finish travelling to Australia during this bizarre time. We’ll chat about travel bibles, the realities of travelling with kids, flying with 16 people on a 787, and all things hotel quarantine.

    Someone Needs to Check in on Australia

    Is everything okay!? While we are trying to get in, we can’t help but feel like things are a little strange within our Aussie walls. Between riots, earthquakes and pandemic fatigue there is a lot to unpack. Because let’s be real, what’s happening back home directly affects how long it is until we are all reunited. Join us for a drink as we chat about the news this week, touch on the vigil in London and share our “wtf” moment.
