    Jun 20 2024

    "Ten Travel Tips" rolls off the tongue, but a more appropriate title for today's episode might be something along the lines of: "Thoughts and Perspectives on Travel" - but alas alliteration (and simplicity) for the win!

    Today's conversation is a little different from previous episodes. Listen in to hear a round up of Claire and Matt's top tips - and as always feel free to email us at: WorldRoundedPodcast@gmail.com and share with us your top travel tips. We'd love to hear from you.

    Claire and Matt discuss:
    - Their thought process in preparing to step away from normal life.
    - When and how Matt told the company he worked for that he was leaving for a year.
    - IF they had a plan for after the adventure.
    -Did they ever consider moving abroad?
