  • The perfect thing to fill the Jet Lag content void!

    After binging all 6 Schengen Showdown episodes in about 24 hours, I can confidently say that I will add this to my weekly JLTG routine! I think it’s better than RHAP, and rivals the Layover! I would strongly recommend for anyone who is into the show. Easily 5/5.
