the getAwayZ Podcast
Real travel stories and practical guides for exploring Europe with teens, pets and curiosity.
Welcome to the getAwayZ. We’re Erin and Lisa, friends and roommates who moved from the U.S. to Europe in 2017. With Erin’s teenage son and Lisa’s dog, Rex, we’ve spent years traveling across the continent, uncovering hidden gems and navigating the quirks of life abroad.
Our podcast is all about sharing the adventures of exploring Europe, from finding dog friendly destinations to discovering activities that keep a teenager engaged. We bring you personal stories, practical travel tips, and an honest look at what it’s like to live and wander as migrants in Europe.
