Thank you to SafetyWing for sponsoring today’s episode. They are my go-to choice for travel insurance, and here are five reasons I love using them.
SafetyWing Travel Insurance
Hello, and welcome to Episode 151 with Erin Hynes, a returning guest. This episode is different from the previous one as Erin quit her job to travel the world for 165 days this year (2024). As we have both been on 'big' trips in recent times, I thought it would be great to hear about Erin's trip first and foremost and then dive into some intriguing questions about what we both thought on different aspects of travel post-COVID.
We dive into the reasons for Erin quitting her job to travel, each part of the trip, including Tanzania, Greece, Sri Lanka (and more!), the cost of the trip, what her backup fund was, what she thought of travel in a post-COVID world, whether it was as transformative as her last big trip in 2017 and so much more! There is an important lesson and story in this episode about the need for travel insurance, which everyone should take note of, and very apt for this episode's sponsor, too!
Erin is one of my favourite people in travel, and she has an awesome podcast named the Curious Tourism: Responsible Travel Podcast. She took a break during her trip but plans to get stuck into a new season in the coming months towards the end of the year. She is also among the most respected travel bloggers out there, with her Pina Travels blog, which is great for all sorts of information on many countries and subjects related to travel.

I last saw Erin in person during my big trip last year in Toronto, and it was great to hop on a call for three hours to record an episode and catch up! If you have any questions about our trips, please send a note to my email below or DM me on Instagram.
Enjoy. Be inspired!
