Teeth Fixed, Bones Bent. How we Saved $$ in Thailand

Trusting our Teeth to Thailand and paying to be pummelled.

After three weeks in Chiang Mai, Thailand, Liz and Brian are smiling from ear to ear.

Their bones have been pummeled, their teeth nicely drilled, and they have a ton of cash to spend in weird restaurants…

In this week’s show, the couple share all about having their teeth fixed with a dentist in Thailand, the full Thai massage experience, and eating out in weird restaurants.

 

Enjoy!

How to Find Cheap Flights

How to Find Cheap Flights

I’ll let you into a secret. Seasoned travellers don’t (really) know how to find cheap flights. But what they DO know is how to use the filters & tools to find cheap flights for when they are going on vacation.

I know. It sounds the same, but it’s not.

The tool I want to share is free for everyone. I’ll show you how to use it to get the best deals and the cheapest flights.

I’m all for tips and tricks to save money on travel.

I have wracked up lots of airport hacks in my thirty years of globetrotting, including flying from the US to New Zealand, and finally mastering how to sleep on a flight.

So sit tight and let me share my favourite tool for finding you cheap flights.

27 Sits Later. A TrustedHousesitters Review (an HONEST One)

27 Sits Later. A TrustedHousesitters Review (an HONEST One)

We started using TrustedHousesitters when we travelled as a family five years ago. We have stayed in gorgeous houses all over the world, including house-sitting in New Zealand
 
Now, after twenty-seven house sits and a wealth of wonderful travel memories, (we are currently housesitting in Canada for three months!) I thought it was finally time to share an honest review of Trusted House Sitters.
 
It’d be rude not to.

The Pros and Cons of Housesitting (Nope. It’s not all a bed of roses)

The Pros and Cons of Housesitting (Nope. It’s not all a bed of roses)

Why write a post on the pros and cons of housesitting?

Because I wanted to make it crystal clear that although housesitting is an incredible way to see the world for free (it is most certainly how WE afford to travel the world), it isn’t always a walk in the park.

Far from it.

Housesitting is more like one of those jogs you do when you realise your jeans no longer fit.

The jog that gets you all sweaty and puffy but feels amazing afterwards.

Braving Alternative Therapy. Torture or Bliss?

Braving Alternative Therapy. Torture or Bliss?

Yesterday, Liz experienced floatation therapy. Spent the day floating in a tank of salt water. Alone. No lights. No sounds. No Bri.

This week, the couple discuss the experience and Brian voices his very strong opinions on ‘Crotch Eye-balling’ and other weird and wonderful alternative therapies.

Sit back, nod, relate, and giggle while the couple talks about whacky stress relief, disastrous Greek hotels, and listener holiday laments.

Enjoy!

We want to hear from you! Drop us a comment below or email liz@itsadrama and let us know what alternative therapy you have experienced! How was it??

In this week’s podcast, Liz shares a recent scary memory loss experience on her solo vacation in New Zealand, Brian gets jealous about a bloke named Bernaaard, and the husband and wife couple explores why people love to visit swanky-pants places but are always too embarrassed to complain when they are treated badly…

Enjoy!
