We’re back from Japan, and we’re breaking down our full 2-week Japan itinerary including stops in Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Okayama, Hiroshima, Miyajima, Naoshima, Himeji, Hakone, and then ending back in Tokyo for a baseball game! This was a fun and unique 14-day Japan itinerary for first timers that combined classic places you need to go at least once and then lesser-visited spots like Okayama and spending more time in Hakone to dive deeper.

There are a lot of destinations where there is just that “one thing” that people plan their trip around. With Peru, it’s Machu Picchu, with France, it’s the Eiffel Tower. But what is something we’d plan a trip around when it comes to every country we’ve visited? We dive into every country we’ve visited together and list out something we’d plan a trip around (I.e. we haven’t done yet) or something we recommend planning a trip around that we think is the best thing to do in the country (hint: it isn’t Machu Picchu in Peru-although you should see that too!).   Relevant Links (may contain affiliate links, meaning if you make a purchase through these links, we earn a small commission-at no additional cost to you!): -Galapagos Itinerary: https://worldwidehoneymoon.com/7-day-galapagos-itinerary/ -Trip to Galapagos Cost: https://worldwidehoneymoon.com/galapagos-trip-cost/ -Most trips discussed can be found on the blog: https://worldwidehoneymoon.com   Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!

Just like any couple, each of us have a different approach to trip planning. While one of us really gets into the major themes and ideas of a trip (think big picture) with a focus on food (AKA Chris), some of us dive deep into logistics like flights, trains, where to stay, etc. (AKA Kat). In this podcast episode, we discuss our approaches to travel planning when it is our turn to plan and choose the trip, how the other person helps, and how we balance each other out. What are your approaches to trip planning as a couple?   Relevant Links (may contain affiliate links, meaning if you make a purchase through these links, we earn a small commission-at no additional cost to you!): -Vermont Beer Episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ultimate-vermont-beer-guide/id1453905777?i=1000536228932  -Our Galapagos 7-Day Itinerary: https://worldwidehoneymoon.com/7-day-galapagos-itinerary/ -How Much Does a Trip to the Galapagos Cost?: https://worldwidehoneymoon.com/galapagos-trip-cost/ -Where to Stay in Paris Guide: https://francevoyager.com/where-to-stay-in-paris/   Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!

Some places leave you with unfinished business. Let’s talk about it. There are some incredible places that we’ve traveled to around the world. But that also means that we’ve certainly made our fair share of travel mistakes, leaving us with unfinished business-wishing we could have done things differently. Or it has us wanting to return to do things better this time around. These are each of our top 5 unfinished business items from travel!

How do you balance adventure, activities, and relaxation while traveling? In this podcast episode, Chris and Kat discuss what they think of when they think of adventure, activities, and relaxing, what their approaches are to each during a trip, how they found a great balance on trips…and how they maybe didn’t on some trips! It is a delicate balance while traveling to make sure you find time to actually unwind but also see and do unique things in the destination that you’re in. So how do you balance it?

Are you hoping to visit Corsica? I’ve got a story for you! I (Kat) did a 9-day road trip around Corsica full of fun, relaxation, adventure, and more! Aside from the stunning beaches in Corsica, there are also ample hiking trails. It is known for the GR20, a multi-day trek known to be one of the most challenging in Europe. While I definitely didn’t attempt that, I did hike a portion of it when my friend and I hiked the Aiguilles de Bavella Loop Trail. But things suddenly took a turn when AllTrails information was inaccurate and reviews that claimed it was only a 4.5-hour hike also weren't always fully correct. What was supposed to be a 6.9-mile (11.1 km) hike in 4.5 hours, it ended up being an 8.4-mile (13.5 km) hike that took around 7-7.5 hours. It’s not the longest day hike I’ve ever done… but certainly one where we weren’t prepared with ample water. Lessons were most certainly learned including to always pack more water than you think you’ll need AND ALWAYS carry a LifeStraw Water Bottle. Here is my tale that is partially funny (now that we’re totally fine) and partially a little scary. Plus, I've got tips for your success in hiking this trail. Bon courage while hiking the Aiguilles de Bavella Loop in Corsica!   Corrections: -There were many people that did complete it on AllTrails, but for some it looks like many spots disconnected, making it appear shorter and/or possibly have less time. -Depending on your physical fitness and breaks, you could take between 5-8 hours. -Getting up the mountain is around 2-2.5 miles or so (rather than 3 miles), then it goes down for a bit. -The repelling on a chain wasn’t fully vertical, it was just a steep decline.   Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!

This is how we’re preparing for our hot and humid trip and what we’ve done and lessons learned from past warm weather vacations.   Traveling to France?

We’ve certainly changed how we travel since we were in our early 20s…but over time, how do our lives shape the how, when, and why we travel? Life quickly builds with responsibilities, financial decisions, family duties, and so much more that can alter the way in which we travel. In this podcast episode, we dive into this topic, discussing how priorities and life can change the way we travel. We also discuss potential ideas to keep traveling even when other things are going on in the meantime.   Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!

Lavender fields, dazzling beaches, hilltop villages…and cowboys? Yes, a South of France itinerary in 2 weeks is full of surprises!

This South of France road trip includes visits to Saint-Remy-de-Provence, L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Avignon, Sault, Gordes, Valensole, Grasse, Saint-Tropez, Antibes, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, and more!   Relevant Links (may contain affiliate links, meaning if you book through these links, we earn a small commission-at no additional cost to you!): -My full blog post on my 2-week trip through the South of France: https://francevoyager.com/south-of-france-itinerary-in-14-days/ -One Day in Nice: https://francevoyager.com/nice-in-one-day/ -Guide to Saint-Remy-de-Provence: https://francevoyager.com/best-things-to-do-in-st-remy-de-provence-france/ -Le Thor Lavender Festival: https://www.lavandissima-lethor.fr/ -Sault Lavender Guide: https://francevoyager.com/lavender-fields-in-sault/ -Guide to Gordes: https://francevoyager.com/best-things-to-do-in-gordes-france/ -Ochre Trail Roussillon Guide: https://francevoyager.com/ochre-trail-in-roussillon-guide/ -Valensole Lavender Guide: https://francevoyager.com/lavender-fields-of-valensole/ -1 Day in Avignon: https://francevoyager.com/one-day-in-avignon/ -Best Things to Do in Grasse: https://francevoyager.com/best-things-to-do-in-grasse/ -Weekend in Saint-Tropez and Port Grimaud: https://francevoyager.com/weekend-in-saint-tropez-itinerary/ -Hotel in Nice: The Deck Hotel https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/lrqN8qGndt -Hotel in Saint-Remy-de-Provence: Le Petit Hotel https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/DTAP_dvVrD -Hotel in Avignon: La Mirande https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/B2umIqcMne -Hotel in Gordes: Le Verger https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/ONR-0hOJ2c -Airbnb in Grasse: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/845494388331612754?source_impression_id=p3_1749072154_P34RgY7HNF7HZJhR -Hotel in Port Grimaud: Hotel Suffren https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/pL7IMtopve -Hotel in Antibes: Hotel La Place https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/SZItUA_dFF -Airbnb in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/633014775642347767?source_impression_id=p3_1749072133_P3md4ys8htpdvcNF    **Juan-les-Pins beach is closed until 2026.   Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!

What is it like to visit Italy right now, in 2025, and beyond? Well, Kat was just in Italy (right before the Conclave no less), and things are…pretty busy. It’s the Jubilee year in Rome and the Vatican. It is a holy year that occurs every 25 years with many events, the chance to go through holy doors in 4 churches in Rome, and more. So, needless to say, it is busy in Rome, the Vatican, and honestly Italy in general. Because who goes to visit Rome and doesn’t also say, “Well…while we’re already in Italy...” Things are going to be busy throughout this year, but Italy is and will always be popular. Overtourism is still on the rise, and I think tourism will still be high in the years to come in Italy. That being said, there are ways to adjust, adapt, and even alter your plans to make it far more enjoyable. Whether you’re hoping to find words of encouragement before your visit to Rome this year or are trying to find lesser visited spots in Italy, this episode has you covered and more!   Relevant Links (may contain affiliate links, meaning if you book through these links, we earn a small commission-at no additional cost to you!): -Information About the Jubilee Year: https://www.iubilaeum2025.va/en.html -Pristine Sistine Tour: https://fas.st/t/NxJysjUh -Complete Vatican Tour: https://fas.st/t/WXvpVxHW -Keys to Open the Sistine Chapel Tour: https://fas.st/t/ZkUFWfpS -Hotels in Rome: -Hotel Residenza San Calisto: https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/J7j0bYy9dr -Princeps Boutique Hotel: https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/f3hGaI6R6p    Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!
