  • Too Much

    I used to really enjoy this podcast however lately it seems like every episode is how amazing this lifestyle is. I understand that they are loving it and while I enjoy listening to their travels, this mother and grandmother can’t do anymore than two weeks away from her family - yes I have tried!

  • Jon & Amy are fun & informative

    This is such an enjoyable podcast to listen to. I love hearing a husband and wife team doing it so well… Digital nomad living, that is. They are inspiring my partner and I, who already had the wheels in motion, to really kick it up a notch and make it happen sooner rather than later. I look forward to every new episode!

  • Easy dialogue, insightful and inspiring

    I stumbled upon a recommendation for this podcast in a worldschooling Facebook group and have thoroughly enjoyed listening to each and every episode. They answered so many of my questions about traveling in South America and as we get ready to make our own leap, they made it feel doable and provided us with ongoing inspiration.

  • So good to listen to the two of you.

    You guys are great! Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Great pace, information and humor. I’m soaking it all in! It is our dream to be out there in a little less than 4 years and we are very much looking forward to it. We are gathering lots of information and doing yearly trips to different places to have an idea of what is out there and build a bit of an itinerary.

    Stay healthy, funny and awesome and hopefully moving soon.

    I’ll keep on listening and recommending you.

    Hasta luego a... more

  • Love the easy going and fun travel banter between karen and Jon

    I was recently having a night of insomnia and began pod surfing when lo and behold I came across the names of two people I used to know from many years ago at Fmc. I would love to travel but just don’t have the means right now but have so enjoyed your podcasts. Your creative talent as writers comes across in your passionate and colorful verbal descriptions of the people and places you have traveled . So happy that you are living out one of your dreams - looking forward to hearing more podcasts. ... more
