We made it just in time for the Festival of Lights in Lyon and then settled in for a blissful week of local life by visiting the neighborhood market and bakery every chance we got. The weather turned chilly, but we still trekked out to the stunning Parc de la Tete d'or, which includes a public zoo!

Our few days in the coastal Nice were dampened by Carl feeling unwell, so Adrienne had to finish a bottle of wine by herself. Good thing our AirBnB was compact, to say the least. We still searched out delicious socca while Adrienne suffers a French faux-pas - what would you have done?   For more info on our trip & budget, check out our blog: https://adventuresofcarlienne.com/nice-france  Follow Us Everywhere!

Our 6 day road trip in Morocco was a whirlwind of an adventure and though it was the rockiest (literally & figuratively) part of entire trip, it made for the most significant and memorable destination and we will surely be back again.  For more info on our trip & budget, check out our blog: https://adventuresofcarlienne.com/road-trip-through-morocco/  Follow Us Everywhere!

Barcelona was one of the most architecturally stunning cities we visited, and we had the very best tapas, but stay away from the empanadas! We experience the most shockingly ethereal space and then go hunting for some famous tiramisu that had too many red flags!  For more info on our trip & budget, check out our blog: https://adventuresofcarlienne.com/barcelona-spain/  Follow Us Everywhere!

Lisbon is one of our favorite cities so far: decadent seafood to 5 EUR hand pulled noodles, pastéis de natas and espresso any time of day, and literally breath-taking views everywhere you go. This widely diverse city with coastal town vibes had us settling in deep and so reluctant to leave, so we may just consider moving here. Join us and see if you're ready to make the move too!

Originally we had 2 only one full day scheduled for Porto, but the morning that we are supposed to leave for Luso, we found out that the forest is closed! Lesson learned that we should have been more proactive about checking, we had checked the weather but not on the forest itself! So in a wild panic, 1 hour before check out, we decided to cancel our Luso trip and extend our stay in Porto; luckily it all worked out as we got an extra day that was finally sunny!

We're joined by our good friend Monnette Lacap to share our struggles and strategies to speak effectively and conscientiously and how tools like therapy and yoga have helped.

Ever feel like a fraud or an imposter? Fellow yoga teacher Betty Ai joins us to talk about the struggles of maintaining a personal practice while teaching.We discuss the trends of yoga in the US and how its continuing to change. We share our experience going through yoga teacher training, personal trainer certification, and culinary school and what we do when we're feeling inadequate or doubting our abilities to perform or lead. 

Why does change always seems so hard? How can we better deal with surprises or with setting personal goals? Our friend David Allender joins us to talk about change as he prepares for fatherhood and what it was like discovering the news. We talk about what it's like to come home after a full year of traveling and share some lessons learned about being adaptive and flexible.
