Visit Greece: Ancient Philippi

Located just 2 hours from Thessaloniki, the ancient city of Philippi is at the same time easy to get to and off the beaten track. Amidst these ancient ruins, you can imagine the Roman legions facing off in the Battle of Philippi or the Apostle Paul walking the city streets.

Visit Malawi: Mumbo Island

Mumbo Island was the perfect escape for a father-son weekend with my oldest son. At Mumbo Island, we were able to unplug and unwind in one of the most beautiful spots in all of Malawi.

Eating at Malawian Roadside Restaurants

Finding yourself as an azungu (foreigner) at lunchtime far away from recognizable restaurants in the city can be intimidating. Thankfully, most small towns in Malawi have simple roadside restaurants that you can safely taste with a little bit of “need to know” information.

One of my random strong traveler opinions is that when you’re counting the number of countries you’ve been to, airports don’t count. We’ve been to the Addis Ababa, Ethiopia airport several times on our way to and from Malawi, but we’ve never left the airport so I don’t consider myself to have been to Ethiopia.…
I honestly have this thought in literally every city I visit. But especially Rome. Don’t mind me, just trying to figure out how we can live here. 😄 . . . #expat #expatlife #expatfamily #expatblogger #travel #travelingram #travelingfamily #adventurefamily #adventuretravel
We leave what has been our temporary home in the US the last 7 months in 2 days, and we leave the US the next day. I wish we could skip to the good part of spending a few days in Rome and then being back home in Malawi, but no. We have an overwhelming…
It’s honestly REALLY hard to choose the best view we saw in 2022, because we’ve been to so many amazing places, but I think Rome from the top of the St. Peter’s Basillica dome takes the cake for me! It was so gorgeous, and totally worth all those stairs! Hanging out on the roof a…
It’s been an unbelievable year of adventuring and first year of adventurologists! We had the unique opportunity this year to spend the first 6 months in Malawi, the last 6 months in the US, and a few days in Italy in between. It was VERY hard to narrow each month down to just one clip,…
Possibly our most unpopular opinion as travelers is that we didn’t like Zion National Park. We went in the middle of the week in the off season, and it was still insanely crowded. This video is from the start of the Narrows, ZNP’s most popular hike, but we also did two other less popular hikes…
While on our road trip, I filmed this quick video explaining how I packed my @cotopaxi Allpa35 to live out of it for a month. It worked so well, I wouldn’t change a thing about it! It also has a laptop sleeve in the back, but we had so many electronics and cords that we…
Days 28-30: We headed north across Texas, making a quick stop in San Antonio for lunch and to see the Alamo, where Josh served as our own personal tour guide and taught us all about what happened there. We spent two nights in Fort Worth visiting several friends there, and then left early in the…
