Hi! We’re Mitch and Jan — your mature, mid-life travel friends who love exploring the world (ideally with a glass of wine in hand). You won’t see us cliff-jumping or doing extreme adventures, but we’re also not spending every day in art galleries and museums. We’re all about the fun, meaningful sweet spot in between. We share overseas slow-travel guides, real cost breakdowns, honest reviews, and simple how-to videos to help you explore the world comfortably and confidently. If you love no-hype, real-world travel, subscribe and come wander with us. CHEERS! 🥂

We finally shared our full 🇻🇳 Phu Quoc video… and honestly, this island surprised us.

Beautiful beaches, huge developments, empty luxury towns, amazing local food, and some areas that felt nothing like the Vietnam we expected.

Phu Quoc is changing FAST… and after exploring around the island, we definitely came away with strong opinions on the best areas to stay and which parts felt the most authentic.

If you’ve been to Phu Quoc — or are thinking about going — we’d love to know:

👉 Would YOU stay on the west side, east side, or Sunset Town?

We’re officially in Bali 🇮🇩

But before we landed… there were 3 things we had to figure out — and honestly, it’s not as straightforward as it seems.

So we filmed the whole process in real time to make it easy 👇

Would you do this ahead of time… or just deal with it at the airport?

We tried TWO different sleeper buses in Vietnam… to see if they’re actually worth it.

They’re one of the most popular ways to get around the country — but we’ve always wondered:
👉 Are they comfortable enough?
👉 Or are they more of a budget, backpacker-style experience?

If you’re planning a Vietnam trip and deciding between buses, trains, or flights — this might help you decide what’s actually worth it.

Curious… would you try this? 🤔

Is Phuket actually ruined… or is that just what people say online? 🤔

We’ve been hearing this everywhere — overcrowded, expensive, not worth it anymore…

But after spending time here, we were honestly surprised.

New video is live — would you still visit Phuket in 2026? 🇹🇭👇

Most people think this is an easy choice… 👀

$50 hotel vs $100 “affordable luxury” in Vietnam 🇻🇳

But after actually staying in both, it wasn’t nearly as obvious as we expected…

One of these REALLY surprised us (and not in the way we thought)

👉 New video is live — would you save or splurge?

We almost skipped Nha Trang… and that would’ve been a mistake 😳

We didn’t really know what to expect, but this beach city in Vietnam surprised us in a few ways — long stretches of sand, great views, and a couple experiences we didn’t see coming.

Have you heard of Nha Trang before?

🎥 Our new video is live now — link below 👇

We tracked EVERY dollar in Nha Trang 🇻🇳… and this surprised us.

💰 $700 for 7 days — but was it actually cheap?!

From our Airbnb to food, transportation, and everything in between… it’s all in this one.

🎬 It’s live now!

Also — we’re trying something new this week with 2 videos 👀
Let us know what you think!
