How many times have you guys thought about traveling? Not just a weekend getaway or a vacation, but really seeing another place? What's stopping you?
These last few years with the pandemic have been..well, alot. We've had lockdowns, restrictions, and having to adjust work for the norm. On top of that, if you have kids, school looked completely different.

That Trip Advisor survey I mentioned last week about travel trends highlighted that more people wanted to explore different locations. It was less about visiting tourist traps and more about embracing their destination's uniqueness.

In this episode, we get into:
