  • Moving Overseas in the Pandemic & Travel Hacks for Europe!

    Moving Overseas in the Pandemic & Travel Hacks for Europe!
    Jul 15 2024
    I had the pleasure of interviewing Mon and Ryan, an Aussie couple who moved to Germany through the pandemic, who both LOVE travel. Despite working the traditional 9-to-5 grind, they’ve managed to carve out a life filled with travel and exploration, all while navigating the challenges of moving abroad.

    My sincerest apologies for the ‘variety’ let’s say of audio in this episode.. Unfortunately it didn’t sound as stark while recording and only in the editing - as always though, the content keeps it worth it ;)

    What we discuss in this episode:
    • Moving from Australia to Germany during the pandemic and the reasons behind the move.
    • How their passion for travel was nurtured throughout their lives.
    • Comparing the cost of living in Germany versus Australia.
    • Accessibility and ease of traveling through Europe.
    • Common mistakes travelers make that lead to higher costs.
    • Surprising travel hacks that save money.
    • Financial preparation tips for an upcoming trip to Europe.
    • Balancing societal expectations with personal desires to travel, move countries, build careers, invest, and save money.
