Your Odyssey Awaits

 Is this episode related to Vegas? Ehhh not really, we deviated to our own thing. But I had fun relistening to it, and I wanted an easy episode to air. Tee hee hee.SocialsWebsiteInstagramPinterest

In this episode, we have a returning guest to help me bombard the airways for not just one, not even two, but THREE back-to-back episodes! Follow along with me and my work sister Nola as we navigate around making last-minute domestic travel plans in a pandemic dystopia!

Before one makes career-changing moves and (temporarily) uproot your life, it's a good idea to talk to a seasoned professional. In this episode, I asked Kylee from Passports and Preemies about her experience and what got her into travel nursing. Since she's been traveling before the pandemic, so I view her as an OG in the game.Follow Kylee on these platforms:WebsiteInstagramEmail: passportsandpreemies@gmail.comAlso check out the MedVenture App, designed to connect you with fellow traveling healthcare professionals!

Welcome to the last episode of the Winter 2018 Saga for Your Odyssey Awaits! I'm happy to have brought in my travel buddy Jason to help me sorta reminisce about our time in the Czech Republic. It's always nice to prove to people that I am capable of making friends when I go off to do my own thing.**Yes yes, we are missing a stop from my saga! Life happened and self-care was mandated by, well, me. I promise that I'll cover Dubai in season 3 as well as an epilogue of the trip. That's right, so interesting messiness occurred before I returned to Houston (and even after).SocialsWebsiteInstagramPinterest

On this episode of Your Odyssey Awaits I invited the Dakara sisters to help provide some guidance about how to effectively travel with a large family.

If you only have less than 24 hours to check out a city in Europe, I’m confident that Amsterdam is a great choice.

It’s time that we see the Caribbean in a whole new light! No cruises, no boujee one-stay beach resorts, why not try Carnival chasing! No, we are not talking about the cruise line. In this week’s episode of Your Odyssey Awaits, Sha explains to my naive self about what Carnival chasing is, its origins, and how cutthroat it could be if not planned early enough. It’s a chaotic event of color and culture and I am excited to look into this!SocialsWebsiteInstagramPinterestJunkanoohttps://www.trinijunglejuice.com/

Of course, the first stop in this winter saga is in the coldest location I could think of! In the three days that I was in the country, I made sure to hit up as many iconic spots and sites as I could. From geothermal spas to countless waterfalls, hiking up a glacier to one tasty hot dog stand (yep, my priorities are well set).  And of course your host just HAD  to see the northern lgihts.   SocialsWebsiteInstagramPinterest ResourcesBlue LagoonReykjavikGalaxy Pod hostel-Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur-Sun Voyager-Cafe Loki -Hallgrimskirkja ChurchGolden Circle-Kerid Crater Lake-Faxi waterfall-Strokkur-Gulfoss waterfall-Thingvellir National ParkSouth Coast-Reynisfjara black sand beach-Seljalandsfoss waterfall-Sólheimajökull GlacierNorthern Lights

Traveling is meant to be a fun experience for the family, but it can be very stressful and nerve-wracking if a member of the family has special needs.

Forget about those negative stereotypes about cruise ships! Or at least don't knock it until you try it!
