This week, I’m recording from Mallorca, Spain.  I’m not ready to do a full episode on this great place, so I wanted to address the top question I hear when we talk about our trip:  how did you pack?   The first half of the show is all about some of the nuts and bolts of preparing to leave the country, from insurance, to visa planning, to transportation planning itself. Then, I break down the things we packed that were brilliant, contrasted with the things I packed that were foolish.   And in bloopers, we were finally hit by petty crime!   The headlines segment is now a separate show!  https://open.spotify.com/episode/6uMrdNRuPwBuJrqn4kRXvf?si=YZE3FD9-Sxuj4O2jUkFu9A If you want to play the currency markets, but don’t want to open a foreign bank account, WTD highly recommends Wise service.  Click on the link below to find out more and buy some Euros or other currency.  When you need the Euros for that next trip, they’ll be there, and you’ve bought when the dollar was strong. https://wise.com/invite/u/jameso1983 SteriPEN is the WTD-approved, UV water purifier pen for your travels in developing nations.  It’s great for doing dish rinses, and keeping everyone hydrated when buying large bottles of water isn't feasible.
