For those lucky enough to find a way to travel during a gap year, before entering into the normal pattern of sedentary life and a job, the taste of the sights and adventure can be addictive. Our guests on today's show are Amanda and Ryan, hosts of The World Wanderers podcast, and full-time digital nomads with a passion for exploring the unknown. Their podcast and blog focus on travel as a lifestyle as well as amazing destinations and what it means to live a digitally nomadic life in today's climate. Amanda and Ryan started traveling together in 2011 and have not looked back since, visiting over 60 countries. They are now basing their explorations from a home-away-from-home in Mexico! In our conversation, we cover some of the important landmarks in our guests' journey, talking about making brave and bold decisions and getting out to see the world! Listeners can expect to come away with some fresh inspiration on how to budget, pack light, and make things happen, as well as some great reasons to tune into Amanda and Ryan's podcast!
