Hi, this is Chris from Amateur Traveler in you're in the right place, but this is not an Amateur Traveler episode.

Jason, my podcast brother from the Zero to Travel Podcast and I are doing a feed exchange where we're putting one of his episodes in my feed and one of my episodes in his feed.

The particular episode that you're going to get of Zero to Travel Today is one of his transition to travel stories. Zero to Travel talks a lot about how to get out on the road.

Not as much destinations more about how-tos and this is transition to travel before and after with

Sophia Antig. I hope you enjoy it.

Today we have an episode that started it all. The Transition to Travel series has been near and dear to my heart

for a few reasons. First of all, they take a long time to make. I interview an individual or a couple before they have gone on a big trip when they're

in the middle of a huge life change, either quitting their job to travel, selling their home,

maybe all of the above.

And then I catch up with them months or sometimes longer

down the road and interview them

after they've spent a good chunk of time

out traveling the world.

In this case, they had traveled the world for a year.

You really get to see if some of the fears beforehand

were legitimate, if the idea of what travel was going to be really matched up with the

reality of it and you get to get a deeper understanding of the transformative power that travel has just by listening to one

couple's story that's all coming at you today in this interview plus I am going to answer the question. How do you use big picture

thinking to accomplish all of your travel goals and life goals for that matter? I'll share

what I mean by big picture thinking and why that has been so helpful for me.

I'll also share a book recommendation, something that very much relates to this episode,

a book I'm reading right now and of course I'll leave you with a quote to all of this and more coming in today's show right now so buckle up strap in thanks for being here and welcome to the zero to travel
