It’s a Sunday night in Santiago, Chile and Tony and I are… wait for it… in an American bar chowing down on American burgers. Say what?! I would normally think this would be pretty lame of us while in a foreign country, but it’s the Superbowl baby! Plus, I believe we deserve an American night […]
Tony and I cooked this meal in our hostel after an exhausting day of hiking in Patagonia. The mixture of brown rice, veggies, and sausage was the perfect combo to revive our tired bodies – and fill our grumbling stomachs. We love our spicy food so the added hot sauce gave this dish the extra […]
You would not believe the amount of “wow you must be rich!” comments I got from people back in the states when I told them about our RTW trip. Well, I hate to disappoint people but Tony and I are anything but. We have been able to afford this trip because we were diligent with […]

Before our trip began, Tony and I set a budget for the year and vowed to spend (on average) less than $100 USD per day. You may think that’s a lot, but once you add in our high-maintenance travel insurance, airfare, and lodging, you really aren’t left with much to spend. That means dining, entertainment, and all […]
Tony and I are well into our first week of our RTW trip in Santiago, Chile and loving it! It is so exciting (yet bizzaire) to be in a foreign country with no return ticket back home to reality in XX amount of days. It is even more crazy to have no real plans beyond today. After living the nomad lifestyle […]
