Travel N Sh!t PodcastEp 215. How To Prepare Yourself For Future TravelsRemember the butterfly effect? The idea of going back in time and not interfering too much for fear of dramatically altering the “present”? Well, I saw a tweet that juxtaposed that idea with the notion of people not thinking that small acts today could change the future. That obviously got me thinking about the things I can do today, to prepare for future travel. But not in the “save money and stock up on travel sized toiletries” way… but the introspective dCarrie way. Dive in.

Travel N Sh!t PodcastEp 92. An Open Letter to my Younger CousinsThe idea of giving advice to a younger me doesn’t appeal as much as helping my younger cousins. My cousins ya’ll. Them babies mean so much to me. I’ve lived quite a bit in my years and traveling has given me the space to put a lot of it into perspective. From developing my intuition, being open to making the wrong decisions, believing in an intentional universe and believing (and seeing) that I’m capable of so much more than I think I am, I lowkey have a lot of wisdom to share. So, here go.

Anneka isn’t new to being the only Black woman or living overseas; so why was THIS experience so different from her last and how was it similar? Let’s not forget she was living and trav...

Travel N Sh!t PodcastEp 86. What My Plants Have Taught Me About Life and TravelIf you haven’t caught on, I love my plants. Being home has allowed me to dive deeper into said love, and develop it into an actual “hobby”. The more I pay attention to them, somehow, the more I learn about myself. When I intentionally piece it all together, I can see how my travels have been trying to teach me the same lessons. This week the theme is patience. The main lessons my plants have taught me so far are that what I want may not be what’s best, when something is wrong, fix it; otherwise give your decision...

Travel N Sh!t PodcastEp 85. Post Corona TravelI avoided the topic for a while, but I bit the bullet and dove into a few articles attempting to predict what travel post COVID will be. Are you willing to get a future COVID vaccine to cross boarders in the future? Is there any credibility to the idea of “immunity passports”? Where are we going to see price increases? What changes are you willing to make? Have a listen.

Travel N Sh!t PodcastEp 50. Ease On Down The (Travel) RoadThe Wiz is my favorite movie and the soundtrack is my go to for a mood booster. While listening to the munchkins breakdown who The Wiz was, I had an idea. We’ve all been each of the characters. And I’ve definitely embodied what they each thought they lacked and what they learned they had all along. I’m dancing my ass down my yellow brick road of travel and comparing some notable experiences to the personality traits of the main characters. It’s easier if you just hear me out. Listen and enjoy!
