Train Trips, Cross-Atlantic Love Story, and Learning to Use Points and Miles with Dual-Country Parents Hannah & Emmett

EPISODE SUMMARY:

This week on Travelling Through Life: A Podcast on the Go we meet Hannah & Emmett, Owners of Steveston Creative in British Columbia & parents to 3 fantastic boys! We cover everything from cross-Canada train trips, to childhood experiences in China, to moving to each others’ countries & now building a beautiful family together. We talk about how learning to use points & miles (they were my first clients!) has made staying connected with relatives on both side of the Atlantic super affordable for this family of 5. From home schooling to Irish language use in their daily lives, this bicultural family love exploring at home on Vancouver Island & around the globe.
