TTB 210: The Anywherist; How to Live Anywhere in the WorldMelody Warnick, is the author of If You Could Live Anywhere, and has found from personal experience, in some ways it matters more than ever. With 46% of Americans reassessing where they lived during the pandemic being a digital nomad has never held so much value. Melody gives easy-to-understand tips and perspective to the new group of digital nomads, or as she says, “Anywhereists.” She wants to make those who are not location dependent know the plethora of options available to them: that certain cities have programs that pay remote workers to relocate, that living internationally may not be as expensive as you think, or that by living anywhere you unlock new potential to live the life you want.

TTB 209: Investing in Real Estate While AbroadSarah Weaver is a coach, speaker, real estate investor, entrepreneur, and business owner. When Sarah isn't analyzing deals, you can find her looking up her next flight. Sarah Weaver is a digital nomad, meaning she works 100% remotely from anywhere in the world and has been since 2015. She has traveled to 44 countries on six continents and has been fully nomadic since January 2019. As an investor, Sarah went from owning 3 units to owning 15 units in 68 days. She bought a fourplex from 8,000 miles away so she knows a thing or two about long-distance investing! Her 15 units are in four states and now include five furnished rentals—all of which she self-manages from abroad!

TTB 207: Walking Wales and Ovarian Cancer Awareness Ursula Martin was just 31 years old when she went to the doctor and......BAM.  Large growth, scans, blood tests, fear and uncertainty.  She had ovarian cancer. Three  months later, March 2012, Ursula was in follow-up treatment, feeling dazed, confused and, as the clouds cleared, very very lucky. Starting in March 2014 Ursula walked from her home in Machynlleth, UK to a hospital appointment in Bristol then, during the six months before the next appointment she walked around, through, in, under and over Wales, in all its wonderful variations before returning to Bristol.  Then, after the second hospital visit, I'll walk north, following the river Wye up to the mountain Plynlimon and over, home to Machynlleth.

TTB 206: Pursuing a Family Travel Blog with a Newborn Corritta and her wife were tired of the mundane routine of fighting traffic, spending 10 hours at the office, fighting more traffic, and then returning home - only to have dinner and family time for 2 or 3 hours before having to go to bed to do it all over again.  She was tired of spending more time with her coworkers than with her family. Due to the US not having a strong family leave program, and Corritta not accepting the limited amount of time she was getting with her newborn, she decided to leave her life in San Diego and travel the world!

TTB 201: Composing an Album on a Cross-Country Train Trip Cheryl B. Engelhardt is a composer and songwriter. She's toured all over the world, had music in over 40 tv shows and commercials, performed on stage with Sting, and was recently featured in People and Forbes for her social justice choral piece “The Listening”, featuring Martin Luther King Jr's goddaughter, Donzaleigh Abernathy. “The Passenger” is Engelhardt's seventh album, a follow up to her first two best-selling and award-winning New Age albums, “Luminary” and “A Seeker's Slumber”. This week we speak with Engelhardt, who composed and produced “The Passenger” while on a cross-country train trip, the first person ever to create an album on a train. She did so just two weeks after her best friend passed away from cancer. The trip and the creation process was one of grieving, healing, gratitude, and rest. The album features GRAMMY-winning and GRAMMY-nominated soloists who provide a decadent layer to Engelhardt's carefully composed ambient beds. The all-female-produced album was mixed by Engelhardt and mastered by Kim Rosen of Knack Mastering.  The Travelers Blueprint is an indie travel podcast where each week we like to bring you insight from travel authors, adventurers, conservationists, digital nomads, tour guides, and through our own personal experiences.

TTB 185: Paragliding with the Monarch Butterfly Migration Benjamin Jordan grew up in Toronto, Ontario and broke into the world of visual arts through pursuits of fashion and advertising photography. In 2006, Jordan and three friends rode their skateboards across Canada, during which he discovered his passion of producing Adventure Travel Documentaries. He remained out West and has since focused all of his energy into partnering with sponsors, to produce documentaries and publicity, through his unique brand of inspirational and philanthropic adventures.

TTB 183: Trashing the Florida Mangroves Andrew Otazo removed 15,290 pounds of trash from South Florida's mangrove forests and ocean. He carried a 35-pound bag of mangrove trash (currently in History Miami's permanent collection) the length of the 2019 Miami Marathon and led a team that hauled a 130-pound trash cart throughout the 2020 Miami Marathon. These efforts raised over $30,500 to protect Miami's coastal habitats. Andrew has a recurring guest lecture series at the University of Miami, Clemson, and local middle and high schools on grassroots activism.
