96 – Where We Roam

Where We RoamWhere We Roam!

After a series of life events, Scott and Emily kinda felt they were being pushed toward traveling in a big way. They came up with the idea to spend 12 months in 12 countries, wanting to live like a native of that country. Curious to explore the world and learn what it would be like to live in the country and not just “tour” it.

They said it was enlightening to see how others live and enjoy the small details in everyday life while living out of 36 Liter backpacks. However, right before they left on the trip they got pregnant. So they pushed off the trip just until after the baby was born and then head out!! They relied hugely on Airline Miles and ending up flying all their major flights with points they had earned.  Scott goes into great details about using airline miles on their blog –> here!

Emily says it’s fun now to look back and see the milestones that her daughter is reaching compared to their son. Like first foods in Thailand, first starting walking in England, etc

Once they got back to the States they didn’t just jump back into a “white- picked- fence- Life” like they thought they would when they were traveling. They decided to see a bit more of the States while they were in the traveling mode when an old city bus kinda fell into their laps. They had fun renovating and are now enjoying life on the road!!

12 Months ago this family left from Scotland for a year+ long trip around the world, planning to see as much as they can!

The Smiths had always planned for something cool. Some sort of travel. So when the opportunity arrived a while back they jumped at the chance! They sold her business while he would continue to work a bit of IT jobs during the trip. And off they went!!

While they are using the Around the World airline ticket, so far they’ve gotten to see the States, Australia, Asia, Africa and are currently in S. America.  Some of the highlights so far include: Sand dunes, Safaris, Ruins in S. Asia and more! The Smiths have offered to answer any questions other may have about their journey and trip so far!! Check out their website below.

Gillis Family RV Adventure!

This week we are joined by some great friends for our first ever LIVE interview! All of us in the same room! It was great connecting with the Gillis family as they recently sold all their possessions, and left the comforts of home and into a 37′ RV trailer and an open ended adventure.

We were in Colorado Springs visiting Maggie and Josh, when our friends Jared and Kris happened to be wandering through Colorado just starting out their RV trip. They were kind enough to even help us with some house projects and we had a chance to sit down and record their story.

They had some stories and great advice on how to start the process of moving from Suburban life to the open road!

Show notes:

Follow the Gillis’ on Facebook,  and Instagram. They also have some pretty incredible videos of their journey which you can follow at:  You Tube!.

Also, we discussed: BoonDockers Welcome, and Passport America, which is a great way to travel and save money!
