Join best friends Maddy and Natalie as they share their experiences traveling during their "quarter-life crises", from moving to Europe solo to road tripping across the U.S. with strangers from the airport. The pair tackle the travel questions perplexing many 20-somethings in a "post"-pandemic world: How do I make my bucket list financially accessible? Is my comfort zone holding me back? Is van life worth it? In an age where many travel for their Instagram, learn how to create lasting memories in your own backyard, fully immerse yourself in local cultures, and find uncommon adventures in common places.
Natalie discusses her treacherous journey from Florida to Ohio after enlisting three strangers from her cancelled flight to drive together through the "snowstorm of the century". This Christmas miracle roadtrip, which inspired a viral TikTok and publications in the DailyMail and MetroUK, is a perfect example of the beauty that can come from opening yourself up to unexpected adventures.
