Sleep Is Optional, Laughter Is Mandatory: Travel Edition with Pam & Natalie (part 2)

Ever ordered paella moments before your ferry departed, only to find yourself running through foreign streets with takeout containers while locals stare in horror? Welcome to the world of travel mishaps that transform into cherished memories, as shared by hosts Natalie Davis and Pamela Cass in this laughter-filled exploration of resilience through adventure.

From an ill-fated decision to pull an all-nighter in a Madrid airport (spoiler: they made it only until 2am) to a nail-biting ferry crossing where staff distributed vomit bags as waves tossed the massive vessel, these stories showcase how our responses to travel challenges reveal our true character. When their rental car rolled down a hill because someone forgot the parking brake, or when motion sickness created the memorable line "it smells like yesterday," these women chose laughter over frustration.

The hosts share practical wisdom for successful group travels, including the importance of aligning expectations, identifying the planners in your group, and establishing a few anchoring rituals while maintaining flexibility. They emphasize that proper rest, nutrition, and hydration create the foundation for enjoyable experiences, while a positive attitude transforms inevitable mishaps into the stories you'll still be telling decades later.

Whether you're planning a family vacation, a friends' getaway, or a solo adventure, this episode offers both entertainment and valuable insights into building resilience through travel. As Natalie and Pamela remind us, the memories that last aren't the perfectly executed plans, but rather the unexpected moments that tested us and the laughter that followed. Listen now to inspire your next adventure – just remember to engage that parking brake!

All of us reach a point in time where we are depleted and need to somehow find a way to reignite the fire within. But how do we spark that flame? Welcome to Reignite Resilience, where we will venture into the heart of the human spirit. Resilience where we will venture into the heart of the human spirit. We'll discuss the art of reigniting our passion and strategies to stoke our enthusiasm. And now here are your hosts, natalie Davis and Pamela Cass.

Speaker 2 0:41

Because I am infamous. I don't know why, and it's something that I still do. I am infamous for booking the most inconvenient travel times. Oh yeah, if it is first thing in the morning, if it is the red eye flight, I am typically booking that flight.

Speaker 3 0:59

That's the one Because at the moment. It sounds good, seems like a good idea. Then you're in it and it's like that was not a good idea.

Speaker 2 1:07

So rest is my advice, like getting rest when possible. That's important, right, because it can definitely impact the experience. Everything, make it stressful or comical, which in our case, for Spain, it was comical.

Speaker 3 1:22

Okay, let's talk about Spain.

Speaker 2 1:21

It was comical.

Speaker 3 1:23

Okay, let's talk about Spain, her trip home. We flew from Marseille. No, where were we at? No, I think we went to. We were flying to Madrid. We were flying to Madrid. Yes, where were we flying?

Speaker 1 1:37

from Marbella.

Speaker 2 1:38

Marbella Okay.

Speaker 3 1:39

Yes, so from Marbella to Spain, and Allie's like we have 10-hour layover, so we got to Marbella at like six o'clock at night and our flight was leaving at 10 the next morning. So she's like we don't need a hotel.

Speaker 2 1:48

and it's like okay, this is the night that we pull it all night.

Speaker 3 1:52

Yes, because I've never done that in my entire life and in my. I don't even know how old I was then. I wasn't in my 50s, or was I? Oh no, not yet, wasn't my 50s yet, and so it's like that's a good decision, you know, in your late forties, to start doing all-nighters, and so we made it till about two in the morning. We went strong, like we took us into Madrid, we did the churros, we did the tapas, and we were so More tapas, more wine.

Speaker 2 2:23

And the thing is, the city is awake, people are. It wasn't remember we?

Speaker 3 2:28

first got there, it was like it was quiet and then it was like too early. All of a sudden, 10 o'clock rolls around and it was like the droves of people come out, so we're going, this is going to be fantastic. Then we find ourselves in a starbucks, exhausted, all of us wanting to like pass out, and then we get kicked out because it's closing. So we're like well, let's go back to the airport. Well, the airport didn't have like cushy soft chairs. They were like the metal park benches that have the plastic that's been sprayed over them.

Speaker 2 2:57

Yes and so here with arm dividers between each, so they are chairs for one Rounded.

Speaker 3 3:04

Like they were shaped like an oval. Yes, so you had two spots that were straight, that were for about a three foot person. Yes, and so here we are. Do we sleep on the concrete floor? And, of course, we have our suitcases. So it's like you want to hold onto your suitcases, cause we don't know if somebody might rob us in the middle of the night, cause we're in a foreign country foreign country, right?

Speaker 2 3:26

we. Well, we made it till 2 am. Our flight was at6. In my defense, I feel like we was at 10. Oh, maybe it was at 10 yeah yeah, so we get on that flight.

Speaker 3 3:35

I don't think any of us slept. And then we got to Philadelphia. Yes and again, we're absolutely. By now we've been up for like 100 hours everyone.

Speaker 2 3:44

Everyone's on the hairy edge at this point.

Speaker 3 3:46

You met some friends. Gwen and I got Philadelphia cheesesteaks, yes, yes. Then we get home late at night and we're driving home and you and I are in the back and Gwen is up front, david's driving With David Gwen's, my daughter's a nervous wreck and she's just watching.

Speaker 3 4:06

And she has to sit up front because she gets a little car sick, and so Dave apparently fell asleep and went over into the shoulder and Gwen I don't know what Gwen did, but it woke him up and he's like what's happening, getting coffee, I think she just looked at him and said you, okay it was like oh my God, and of course I was at the point where I had passed being tired.

Speaker 3 4:29

I was exhausted to the point where I almost felt like nauseous and sick and I was like I don't even know how doctors do this. I would not make it.

Speaker 2 4:38

No, I was a little overzealous with that planning. I was like it'll be fine. And here's the thing I'm not sure, with all of the adults that were traveling in that moment, why no one said how about we just book a hotel and go lay ourselves down for a minute? No one said that.

Speaker 3 4:59

Nobody said it and all we did was sit around saying, why the hell are we not in a hotel? And then I think that's why we came up with the idea. It was like, oh my gosh, we should do like what they have in Japan. They have those little pods you can like crawl into. Airports should have those. Every airport needs it. A little pod that you just climb up a little ladder and you slide into your pod.

Speaker 3 5:20

number three with a pillow, and a blanket and you're just in there sleeping listening to the lovely music. I would have been a lot of people do that. I would have swiped for that.

Speaker 2 5:32

Yeah, somebody create that. My overzealous European excitement said we can dance in the streets of Madrid hours of the morning.

Speaker 3 5:41

No, my body said of course this was at the end of the trip, after we had spent every day leaving the hotel when it was dark and getting back when it was dark, so it wasn't like we were just sitting around, you know, the whole week relaxing. We were like doing a typical European vacation and so Americans in Europe.

Speaker 2 6:01

Typical American European vacation.

The Night We Didn't Need a Hotel

Speaker 3 6:03

We did all the things and we laughed so hard and I still just think about all of the Paella incident, all of those things that you can't plan for those things, but they made for amazing memories. I look back and I can just think of a hundred different things that had happened that just make me laugh when I think about it.

Speaker 2 6:26

A hundred percent. Yes, I am such the person that wants to travel for experience. Right, it's about this experience and that comes from a variety of things. Right, it's the people, it's the environment, it's the food, it's the culture. In some instances, in many instances, it's the people that you're traveling with. Right, it's like we just created this whole new memory that, as we were talking about recording this, she said paella, and I couldn't stop laughing.

Speaker 3 6:51

Like that's not paella. Okay, so the paella story let's start with. We had decided to go to the Rock of Gibraltar and it was pouring down rain and for some reason they allowed us into the park, which is a natural park. They allowed us in and it wasn't open, and so we're driving all these places we're not supposed to be driving.

Speaker 2 7:10

We didn't know this because they let us down for downpour.

Speaker 3 7:13

Yes, we get to the top of something and we get out and we're doing pictures in the wind, in the rain, and we look out on the water and there's sun and there's land, and we're like we should go there. Yes, and so we figured it out that that was Morocco. Yes, and it's Africa.

Speaker 1 7:32

Let's go to Africa.

Speaker 3 7:33

We're in Spain, why not go to Africa? Yes, and so, before we drove down, I'm afraid of heights and so I refused to ride in the car down the hill. I think he was backing down it, he was doing something. I was like, nope, I will walk now. Mind you, if you guys don't know, the Rock of Gibraltar is the only European continent that has monkeys, and they're dangerous monkeys and you don't feed the monkeys completely, and I preferred being outside with the monkeys which you could hear like they're doing their all.

Speaker 2 8:09

Yeah, like we could hear the monkeys totally see them. No, they are close, they're, they're close and they're watching. And Pam's like I'll just get out here, I think.

Speaker 3 8:20

Liz got out and walked down with me somebody did.

Speaker 1 8:23

I didn, I didn't walk by myself. I think it was Gwen. I don't think it was Liz.

Speaker 3 8:26

Liz was probably like I'm not doing. That. That's dumb. We were laughing. It was probably Gwen. So we just followed the car, walking behind it, hoping the monkeys didn't come out. Anyway, we did that and then we had to drive in the car down the coast to find one of those double-decker Fairies, fairies that takes you over. You know the ones you see that capsize and everybody dies. That's important for the end of the story. So we decide we get there and we had maybe an hour and a half before, I can't remember In our mind plenty of time, plenty of time. So Liz stays with Dave and Gwen and you and I decide we need to go get paella. Yes, well, none of us read the menu where it said it took 45 minutes to cook it, and so we order it.

Speaker 2 9:15

We're just like because it's made fresh, every batch of made fresh and we're like where is it?

Speaker 3 9:23

and we're looking at the time and we're like it's getting close and I think dave is texting you. Where are you? We're lining up. The lady brings this beautiful paella in this cast iron skillet and we're like can we get it in a to-go container?

Speaker 2 9:38

And she looked at us like are you? We might as well have just slapped her in that moment. She was like the disdain on her face. She was like what?

Speaker 3 9:47

And so here we are, running down the streets of this little village with our plastic containers of paella, yes, which we can't bring it on the ferry. So what are we doing? We're eating it in the line, and this has, like prawns, that are the size of a small child yes, sitting on top, and dave is disgusted by us and let's just point out we are not the only people in line.

Speaker 2 10:13

It is a line and the amount of disgust on people's face. Here's the thing. It was a european 45 minutes, so it wasn't like, oh, it's done in 45 minutes. I think it was like a little over an hour before, I think it was 100, and so we are sprinting over. We didn't eat while we were sprinting, because we are literally sprinting so we don't miss the ferry to get out, and then we're shoveling paella into our pie hole like americans.

Speaker 3 10:42

Everyone's judging us everyone's judging.

Speaker 2 10:44

They're like typical american behavior, including dave and liz totally judging us. Oh yeah, I think I held mine out and I was like y y'all want some, and they were like no, it's disgusting, y'all are disgusting.

Speaker 3 10:57

I can't believe you did this, but we made it. Oh my gosh, but did we die? We didn't, no, we didn't die. So we take the ferry across to Morocco and you get approached by people that want to guide you, and of course Dave is what like six, five. Yeah, of course Dave is what like six, five, yeah, six five. So he's a small man, and so you and I are like five foot, so we're like little people, and so somebody comes over and our guide's name was Magic and he was lovely.

Airport Pod Hotels: A Missed Opportunity

Speaker 3 11:23

And he taught us La Choucaran, which means no thank you, I forgot all about that? Yes, no, thank you. And so he literally took us, we rode camels, literally took us, we rode camels. And then he took us down the back alleys of Morocco, like the old part of Morocco, and he would knock on the back of doors and doors would open and people would pull naan fresh bread exactly oven.

Speaker 3 11:47

Yes, ovens and just hand them to us, and there were rabbits and roosters hanging from strings, and olives and spices. Oh my gosh, I mean just the experience we got unbelievable. And we did everything we tried authentic Moroccan food, the authentic Moroccan drink, the drinks, the tea, yes, yeah. Well, this is when it gets a little dicey because storms starting to come in and again we think we have plenty of time to get to the ferry. And then magic is like oh, we need to go. Well, the ferry was leaving and that was the last ferry for the night he was very clear.

Speaker 2 12:33

He's like you do not want to miss the fairy.

Speaker 3 12:36

Yes, so he somehow bribes the guards. I know he bribed him. He slipped him some money to get us on and, mind you, you had to put your stuff through a metal detector. I bought a knife, like a sword, for my son in Morocco and it was in my bag, which went through the metal detector and that was completely fine. And so I'm just thinking to myself God only knows what is in all of these people's suitcases. Anything could be in there. Because obviously are not working. Yes, so we get on the boat.

Speaker 3 13:07

And it didn't matter, neither here nor there, because we're sprinting and we're sprinting again, again, we get on the boat and a storm hits and this was a humongous boat and it started rocking and I get very carsick, gwen gets very carsick. Gwen and I are sitting on one side facing the food court. And then you guys are across from us looking behind us, where all the people were sitting yes, and then all of us all.

Speaker 2 13:34

You can see out into the crowd, yes, and when cannot?

Speaker 3 13:38

which is a good thing, because Natalie's just sitting here with like her hand on her chin and she's like don't turn around.

The Paella Incident in Gibraltar

Speaker 2 13:45

I'm like okay, I'm not going to with, like all seriousness, like I'm just looking, like my eyes are grazing across the room.

Speaker 3 13:52

I'm like, don't look don't do it, just don't look, don't look, don't do it, just don't look, don't look, don't want to look. Meanwhile, all the staff are passing out bags for people to throw up in, because the boat was rocking Like I've never been on anything. This was where I'm like this whole boat is going to flip. We may or may not get back.

Speaker 2 14:13

And I was like how will people know we were on the boat?

Speaker 3 14:15

no one, it would be when our passports wash up we should probably notify their family in america, oh my gosh. So at that time gwen was not feeling good and so dave was standing this whole time. He didn't want to sit and he was just watching all this unfold and I was trying not to breathe in because I didn't want to smell what was happening behind me. And he's like Gwen, you don't look very good. She had by this time was like white. And so he's like let me get you a bag. So he gets her a bag. Her sweatshirt was on the floor. She gets this bag to throw up in. And she throws up in the bag, which opens at the bottom and goes all over her sweatshirt. Sorry.

Speaker 2 14:58

Gwen, oh my God, we were not laughing in that moment. No, we were all just laughing Because I'm like mortified, I'm like, oh my gosh On her sweatshirt.

Speaker 3 15:07

And Dave's like do you still want that sweatshirt? She's like yes. So Dave goes and finds a trash bag. Gwen puts it in the trash bag. Yes, and we get back, we get to the car and it was a long drive back because we had driven all the way down to the Rockett Gibraltar and then all the way back down and the car kind of smelled a little funky. I'm not going to lie, I was there.

Speaker 2 15:31

I still have like logistics questions, but I'll get to that. I'm like how did we Anyways, but continue, continue.

Speaker 3 15:36

Yeah, we get back to the condo and if anybody has motion sickness, once you get sick it doesn't go away. Really you feel like crap. And so we got back and she just lied down and Dave comes into the room and he goes. I'm really concerned. Are you you gonna wash that sweatshirt? Straight face no like very much like are you just gonna leave it in the bag or are you gonna wash that?

Speaker 3 16:05

yes so we did wash it. But my favorite line from the trip and I still use it today is when we got in the car the next day to go some other adventure dave's like. It smells like yesterday, and so we use that line quite often.

Speaker 2 16:20

Oh, my god. And that's when we could laugh about it, because what is better? We're like another day of adventure. Let's go open up the minivan, because it's a minivan that we're in. Open up up the minivan and the first thing we hear it smells like yesterday.

Speaker 3 16:37

I don't think it was a minivan, I think it was a station wagon.

Speaker 2 16:39

The door slid. Oh, I remember the door sliding because the van ran away.

Speaker 3 16:43

We didn't talk about the night that we got to the hotel after traveling 48 hours and we were all left in the car Dave was driving. We're going to just make sure that that's out there.

Speaker 2 16:53

Always that's a common denominator here.

Speaker 3 16:55

Yes, he went inside to get us checked in and it was late at night. And then he comes out and he goes. Hey, I need you guys to come in with your passports. I brought my whole person. Everybody else left all their paraphernalia Not me I left everything and only brought my passport.

Speaker 3 17:16

Yes, he came back outside and it was slow motion because we're all lined up and we all stop and we all look at each other and say where's the car, and I think we were so tired I didn't even comprehend that somebody could have stolen it, like we were so tired. And then we all kind of look to the right and it's at the bottom of the hill in the bushes because Dave didn't put it in park or something.

Speaker 2 17:35

The parking brake was not on because it's a manual. Yes, I can't drive a stick, and I don't think I would drive a stick in Europe, even if I could drive a stick. I can't drive a stick, I've never learned and so I think the parking brake is what was needed and it was not on. Luckily, there was a curb that stopped the van yes shrubbery.

Speaker 3 17:55

so we all just literally just walked down, got in the car, drove off and we turned not a word was said, we just got it, we just were like okay, because at a moment holy crap, like the car could have been stolen and all of everybody's purses other than my purse other than yours.

Speaker 2 18:11

I left everything. I left everything and we were phones. Everything was left in there.

Speaker 3 18:15

Yes, yeah, this is what happens when you're so exhausted and you're just not aware.

Speaker 2 18:19

Okay, now what are your?

Speaker 3 18:20

logistics questions.

Speaker 2 18:22

We left the country, did we all have our passports? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, why would? We have our passports. I don't remember.

Speaker 3 18:39

I think every time we left the hotel, we traveled with our passports. Okay, this is a piece that I don't remember. I'm like we left the country. How did we leave the country With our PAIA and no passport?

Speaker 2 18:46

Yeah, that trip we did more during those two weeks than I think I've ever done on vacation. We did, we did and we saw every cathedral possible. And I do remember that was okay with Elizabeth. At the time she was significantly younger, but I remember we were leaving and she's like it's okay if I don't ever go into another cathedral, it's okay like she was fine.

Speaker 3 19:00

They're all the same after bucket filled for her.

Speaker 2 19:03

She's like I've seen them all I've seen all of them.

Ferry Ride from Hell and Motion Sickness

Speaker 2 19:05

Those are the memories, right, like that's, oh my god, stressful. Yes, there were some stress. I mean, there were definitely moments that I thought that was going to capsize. Yes, absolutely. And I think the main reason that I was like sitting and watching is there was always this thing that we were like where's your exit? Like that was another thing, how are you going to get out of a situation if you're in it? And so I was like scanning the room for like where's my closest exit, because I think the exit behind us took us down to the lower level, where all the cars were yeah and that.

Speaker 2 19:34

the exit behind us took us down to the lower level, where all the cars were yeah, and that's not going to help us, like if these cars are flipping over, that's not going to help us at all, and so I'm like scanning, and then, as I'm scanning, I'm like To find an exit. It's just the projectile vomiting.

Speaker 3 19:48

It was kind of like the movie Airplane where everybody's thrown up on the plane. It was just like, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 19:54

But the workers? They knew it was going to happen because they were at the ready with those vomit bags. Oh, those bags.

Speaker 3 20:01

Which apparently have holes in the bottom of them.

Speaker 2 20:06

And some of those workers were like in the cafe, like they came out from behind the cafe and they were like handing out the bags.

Speaker 3 20:13

Oh yeah, this was not a one-off, just Gwen puking on her situation and I was thankful that I did not turn around and look inhaling and breathing in any of that smell, because that is a smell. I cannot do that smell no no, I can do pretty much anything, but that is the smell that will send me it will permeate forever.

Speaker 2 20:35

It will, and I cannot see other people's bodily fluids, like it grosses me out, so I don't know how I was able to.

Speaker 3 20:41

I don't know, I would have been dry eating. I definitely would have been dry. It would not have been for the books, the books. One for the books.

Speaker 2 20:48

Anyway, here we are in travel season, we're just trying to.

Speaker 3 20:52

So when stuff happens, it's all how you react to it. It could be the funniest story that you're going to use in the future, or it could be. Oh, that was absolutely miserable and I think we've always chosen what's the fun or the funny part of this? We've always made it fun, and when you're reacting that way and other people see you reacting that way when things are delayed, it calms people down and so sleep, nutrition, water, plan ahead the planning part of it and know who the planners are, I will be the first to say I do not want to plan it.

Speaker 2 21:33

I don't want to set the agenda, I want to go with the flow. I want to be up for the adventure. I want someone else to plan it if someone else plans it, tell me where to go and tell me what I need to pay. That's it like.

Speaker 3 21:43

I'm just likemo you.

Speaker 2 21:44

How much do?

Speaker 3 21:45

I need to.

Speaker 2 21:46

Venmo, I'm good.

Planning for Group Travel Successfully

Speaker 2 21:48

Yeah, I am not the planner, but you want to have a planner in the group and if you have multiple planners in the group, I've learned and I've seen that that will like make things go. It doesn't have to be a meeting, just a conversation. It's not a meeting, just a conversation, just a conversation. Many of those that we've had, like just sitting in the airport, like waiting to get on the plane, it's like, oh, we haven't talked about this. What do you expect, what do you want?

Speaker 2 22:18

We did a trip this last December with the kids and their partners and Barron and I went and a couple of my friends went and we had that conversation just my nucleus of people. We had that conversation like what do you want to do? What are your expectations? And we went on a cruise. And it's interesting because it wasn't that we had to be together all the time, because everyone wanted to do and experience something different. We knew what other people were doing if we wanted to join, but other than that, I'll see you at dinner or I'll see you by the pool or whatever it is.

Speaker 3 22:47

Yeah, If you have a common place, you're like let's always make sure that we are having dinner together or we're always meeting for breakfast or whatever. It's such a great plan. We've got a cruise planned next April. So my neighborhood we do Euchre, and Euchre is a card game for you Midwesters. You know what I'm talking about. I've never played in my life Multiple couples in our neighborhood that we have been playing together for 20 years. It's our 20 year anniversary and so we're doing a 20 year anniversary Euchre cruise. And so we have one of the gals is a travel agent, so she's doing the whole thing. And so we just got together and we're like we need to start having some planning parties, because we got to talk about excursions and like what are we going to do? And sometimes the planning parties are just as fun as the vacation.

Speaker 2 23:32

Just as fun as the trip itself. So cruise tip, like if you're doing the cruise, especially with it being 20 year and all of you you've got to like plan out how you're going to decorate your doors and if you're going to have matching Now that's where I'll come in.

Speaker 3 23:54

Like I don't like to be a gender. That's a good idea. That's a good idea and I'll talk to me a theme. I'm on it A couple of the gals about possibly doing that, and this is a group that I mean. All of our kids are grown now. We've known each other since before some of our kids were born and now they're all graduated and so it's just fun to see the progression and where everybody is now and I'm super excited about it. And I'm going solo, which I'm kind of excited about that too, I'm paying for two people and I'm okay with that because You'll love it.

Speaker 3 24:18

It's not, they're just kidding, it really is just for one, but that's fine, it is for one, but they make you pay for two, which is exactly whatever um, I love that.

Speaker 2 24:27

Yes, and the decorating of the doors. I never really saw the importance of that until you're like trying to figure out your room and where your room is, and then when you have one that like stands out because it's decorated and then you can just find each other's rooms as well. I love that every year one of my childhood friends. I think this is our 38th friendship anniversary. Oh, fun for 38 years. Wow, 38 years.

Speaker 3 24:48

This is our 38th friendship anniversary trip.

Speaker 2 24:52

We try to do a trip every year. For the last five years we've done just the two of us, and it's when we talk about that expectation. We don't need to have the meeting or the call anymore, because it's very clear. We established it year one. We pick a place, we go there and the plan is to to do nothing, followed by a meal where we do more nothing, and then maybe a cocktail or 10, and then we do nothing that's kind of like when you and I go to mexico together.

It's like we never plan. It's just we kind of know we're gonna work out, we're gonna do some sort of morning routine. I get us, yeah, go to the pool or the beach, and then we're going to have a chill. It works, yeah, and it totally works, yeah. So, okay, this was fun, I hope. Oh, my gosh, it was a riot. I hope this gave people some inspiration for family trips, or maybe some tweaks or things that they can do differently when they're traveling with their family. And if you didn't get anything out of this other than the way you show up and the way you react to things is going to make it either the best experience and something you will be talking about for years and years and years, like we do, or it'll be miserable. And so I choose to be on the other side.

Speaker 2 26:04

Agreed. It creates better stories and more laughter. And who?

Speaker 3 26:08

doesn't need more laughter in their lives.

Speaker 2 26:10

Oh my gosh, I feel like this is our sign that we need to do like a reignite resilience trip somewhere so that people can experience what it's like to travel with us. There's always something, always.

Speaker 3 26:24

Always. There is never not something. Always something, there's always something. Yeah, and we always have really really hard always oh my gosh, I love it.

Speaker 2 26:37

Well, happy travels to everyone as we enter a travel season officially travel season. People are out and about, but be safe, make good choices right. I mean, you want to make sure that you're keeping yourself safe as well. Those are tips that I didn't share, but I am constantly. Safety first is kind of always going in the back of my mind, and there are things that I do to prepare myself for travel, either solo or with people. Sometimes people know, sometimes they don't, but it's okay, safety first. So keep yourself safe out there, have fun, make some amazing memories, have some fabulous experiences and we will catch you on the next episode.
