This episode's FAQ is: I have no vacation time and want to travel. What would you suggest? Today's Destination is Julian, CA Today's Mistake- Not carrying a second payment option Travel Advice: Bring earplugs FAQ: I have no vacation time, and I want to travel. What would you suggest? Answers: I have felt this way often. You should find a job with more flexibility and rewards results, not just for being present and punching the clock. If you want to do both, consider a job requiring you to travel, and then add a weekend day before your trip and one at the end. That way, you can do your work and get the job done. You can get travel in on your days before and after. You could always negotiate with the boss for more vacation time. Here are two alternative questions for the travel dreamers listening. What about taking shorter trips throughout the year instead of one long vacation? Have you considered volunteering abroad to gain travel experience while making a positive impact? Comment: Some may say that travel is a luxury, not a necessity, and you should prioritize saving money. I spent the same or less on my around-the-world trip than I would have at home in 2023. If you budget well, you could do the same. Today's destination: Julian, Ca As a solo female traveler, Julian, California, a quaint town of 2000 residents northeast of San Diego by 60 miles, offers a unique opportunity to step back in time and immerse yourself in history and culture. The population is small, but it grows when tourists arrive. Safety is a top priority, and plenty of accommodations include camping or glamping in the Cuyamaca Mountains, cozy bed and breakfasts, and inns. Artists, photographers, writers, and musicians flock to Julian. If you're a fan of apple pie, you'll definitely want to try it here! But there's also much more to do, from hiking and exploring art galleries to shopping, stopping for tea, getting a massage, and even stargazing in this officially designated Dark Sky city. For the adventurous traveler, you can explore the tunnels of a gold mine with a guided tour of secluded mines or try your hand at gold panning. And if you have a car, stop by Dudley's Bakery in Santa Ysabel on your way home for a delicious treat. If you're traveling in the winter after the season's first snowfall, be aware of potential traffic and challenges. It may be best to wait until the end of the season when the crowds are fewer. But overall, Julian is a welcoming and charming destination for solo female travelers looking for a taste of history and adventure. https://visitjulian.com/to-see-do/ https://visitjulian.com/plan-your-trip/road-conditions-map/ https://www.dudleysbakery.com/ Today's Mistake- Not carrying a second payment option My credit card was not accepted, and I did not have money to pay the bill. I was embarrassed. I did not have a second card, so I had to get an IOU and pay as soon as possible. Always have a backup plan if one credit card is not accepted. Today, you have new options, including Apple Pay, Google Pay, and apps like Venmo, so it's easier. Not all businesses accept digital payments, so cash may be the best backup in those instances. Today's Travel Advice-Bring earplugs You never know when you will be surrounded by a loud noise or unable to concentrate. The earplugs will help at a concert, especially if your seat is by the speaker. They pack small and can save your ear from permanent damage. They may distort the sound quality of the concert, diminish your enjoyment of the experience, and defeat the purpose of a live performance, but the health of your hearing is important for long-term sound quality.

In January AB 218 went into effect, allowing for sexual assault victims to sue on claims formerly barred by statues of limitations. This means that thousands of individuals who were abused as children are coming forward with allegations. Among the hard hit youth-based organizations: the Boy Scouts of America. By filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the organization has put on hold hundreds of lawsuits brought against it. But it's still unclear what this means to the local councils that directly oversee Scout troops. That's a crucial question for the San Diego-Imperial Council, whose assets include cash reserves and Mataguay, a 1,000-acre camping and canoeing reservation in Santa Ysabel.
The Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel last month opened a marijuana dispensary inside what once was the tribe's casino off state Route 79 south of Lake Henshaw. It was the first tribe in the county to enter the lucrative marijuana business. Other local tribes are expected to follow suit, potentially setting up a confrontation with county officials, who have banned the operations in the unincorporated areas, though they have no control over the reservations. And the tribes have reached out to the state asking to join the larger licensed cannabis network, but so far have been rebuffed. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/north-county/sd-no-ysabel-marijuana-20190214-story.html
