I love listening to get great travel ideas for my family. We are a family of 5 with kids of similar ages so I relate to so much of what Emily shares!

Not worth listening · Apr 2026

I came across this podcast while looking for shows about traveling with kids and on a budget. It has been so fun to listen to that I’ve gone back and listened to quite a few episodes in the last couple weeks! Emily makes it so interesting and inspiring to think about travel plans. I loved reading some of her national park blog posts also! And I’m really enjoying the Bible recap project reading plan that I found out about through a couple of her episodes. Great podcast!

MomKristin5 · Feb 2026

This is such a great podcast to listen to if you’re planning a trip with kids or just daydreaming about planning one. Emily gives lots of great advice that feels approachable for the average family. I enjoy listening to the episodes each week.

I had been to Costa Rica many years before, but this podcast was the one that planted the seed that it could be a great first international trip for our elementary-age kids. I listened to that particular episode multiple times and watched her YouTube videos as well. I especially enjoyed that the Costa Rica episode featured her husband’s perspective too. I love her candor about past travel mistakes (so you can avoid them), practical suggestions, clear itineraries/budgets, and can-do travel spirit! We didn’t follow her exact itinerary but used it as a jumping off point. Our own trip was a hit! We had the best time and can’t wait for our next family travel adventure. I do want to note for other prospective listeners that she occasionally discusses her Christian faith in the context of her larger family priorities and travel inspo (like visiting Martin Luther sights in Germany). Not a negative or a positive but may impact how good of a fit the pod is for you.
