    Six Best Travel Shows on Amazon Prime (2021)

    Since our family is spending a lot of time not traveling and spending more time indoors, we are getting more of our travel fix by watching travel shows. It seems like there are a lot more travel-related shows on Amazon Prime than there are on Netflix. Here’s a list of our favorites, and why you should watch them too. Note: As of publishing (updated Jan 2021), these shows are still available with an Amazon Prime membership. However, things quickly change when it comes to streaming services. Sometimes shows get dropped and new ones get added. We’ll try to update this post whenever possible. Word Travels First aired in the early…

Happiness with New Experiences A few weeks passed since the original outbreak shut down businesses and travel, my family has been just isolating at home.

    “What are you doing this 3-day weekend? Anything special?”  “Oh you know, just need to tidy up around the house, run some errands. Maybe see a movie or something.” “How about going to Nashville on a 3-day weekend? Or a roadtrip? Or take an all-night bus to a new state you haven’t been to before?” “Wish I could, but there’s no time for that and it’s expensive and, besides, I need to clean up the house and everything.  Catch up on Netflix, things like that.” Have you ever been in an exchange like this, or know anyone who has? Of course you have, because this happens every time there is…
