Here’s our Intentional Travelers collection of blog posts on transformational travel experiences, travel tips, interviews, and guides for meaningful trips.
We’re excited to bring you this guest post by Intentional Travelers contributor, Lianne Bronzo. We asked her to share her couchsurfing expertise with us since she has had a lot of cool experiences with this network around the world. Example 1: CouchSurfing in Mongolia During my first afternoon in Ulaanbaatar, I navigated the rickety local bus…
What does it mean to be Intentional? The word “Intentional” has been a part of our lives for some time now. This particular word has truly shaped our marriage and the trajectory of our life. To us, it means being conscientious and deliberately choosing the way you live your life. So often we make life choices based on what’s…
I have always been intrigued and inspired by families who travel frequently or long-term. We have met a number of traveling families here in Ecuador, and one of the biggest secrets that helps them break through the cost barrier is using miles and points. That’s why I’m really excited to introduce you to Leana, whose…
When my Uncle did the Peace Corps in the 70’s, my Mom would record messages for him on tape and wait months to receive his response in the mail. Times have really changed! These days, many Peace Corps Volunteers are just as connected by phone and internet as they would be in the States. While this new…
As the year comes to a close, it’s a perfect time to stop and reflect. For the past few years, we’ve really enjoyed the practice of doing an Annual Review because it helps us celebrate our victories, recognize areas for improvement, and start taking steps toward fulfilling our dreams. During our recent stay with Jedd’s brother in Honolulu,…
Finding cool new places with wifi where we can work is one of the perks of being digital nomads. Although we’re not coffee aficionados, we really enjoy the “change of scenery” that coffee shops provide to our work week. In bigger cities, there are great resources like workfrom.co to find new cafes, co-working spots, and other work/study-friendly environments. I don’t…
This week’s traveler feature is Marsha of World Within Her. A Russian born in Lithuania, she now lives in London. She is passionate about responsible travel and eating healthy. Here’s what she shared in her interview: How did you get started with traveling? I started traveling with my mum when I was as young as 4 months….
Today I am really excited to introduce you to the Boyink family, formerly of DitchingSuburbia. I can’t tell you how many times Jedd and I have heard some variation of: “Now is a good time to travel, before you have kids.” Yes, bringing kids into your life adds a whole new dimension, but it doesn’t…
So far in our travels together, we’ve done a number of home-stays abroad. I (Michelle) lived weeks or months at a time with several families in the Dominican Republic during my two summers as an intern. As a part of our in-country Peace Corps training, Jedd and I lived for two weeks with a spicy older…
We’re excited to introduce you to another intentional traveler, Diana Edelman, who I connected with through the weekly twitter chat she started on responsible tourism. She is a passionate traveler and advocate who has a lot of wisdom to share on her blog. I’m really glad she did this interview for us because she’s a great example of…
