Heyo! Mitch and Day here 👋🏼

We’re just your typical American-Colombian couple determined to live every second of our precious time here on earth to the fullest. After a 10-month solo backpacking trip through South America, I (Mitch) stopped in Cali, Colombia to take salsa dancing classes 💃🏻. I only planned to stay for a couple weeks, but God had other plans for me. I met a cute Colombian girl (Day) in class, those couple weeks turned into a couple years, and before we knew it...we were married 👰🏻🤵🏼

Now we’re traveling the world full time as digital nomads, supporting ourselves by working online 👨‍💻👩‍💻

Our goal with these videos is to inspire you to step outside your comfort zone, give you an inside peek at our crazy imperfect lives, and show you that you don’t have to be rich to live an extraordinary life...all you need to do is make the choice!

    What other mistakes have you heard of when searching for cheap flights? Share 'em in the comments for everyone to learn!
  • You are easy to listen to and very helpful! Thank you for sharing your tools !
  • Another hack when using VPN set your location to a lower income country that will bring you better prices.
  • @LidiaExplores
    That price difference for those local flights in Kenya is insane! I definitely learned the hard way to stop using Expedia. I lost so much money on a trip that had to be cancelled due to the craziness of 2020 (both on flights and rental car). I still use Expedia as a search engine, but I always book directly with the airline now. Thanks for these tips! So glad I discovered your channel!
  • @s.oplias
    I'm so happy to know that your favourite location from all the countries you've traveled to, is Colombia.
    That's my country! You're awesome! and beautiful Thanks !
  • @diegoarelano
    Great tips!!! Just took a lot of notes! Thanks, guys!
  • Another consideration when doing group vs non-group pricing (aside from elite status) is if you’re tracking with kids. Every airline has rules for booking kids without adults and different countries have different rules for allowing kids to travel “without” both parents.
    We went to Mexico a few months ago and out tickets had been booked as me with all the kids on one reservation and my husband on a separate reservation (same flight). We couldn’t do online check in since I was flying “alone” with the kids. (Airline needed verification that the other parent consented.)
    Also, you run into “unaccompanied minor” issues.
  • @tetsuro80
    Thank you for helping me to check myself before I wreak myself, LOL!😀
  • @wigandweirich308
    What are the risks for buying flights from another country / by VPN?
  • The first tip about checking other airlines that may not be in the Aggregator website
  • Hee guys! This is Emily from Bansko 😁 wanted to let you know that my first 2 videos are online!

    Hope you are doing well, it was nice meeting you! 🙏
  • I’m waiting on my American Airline card it was lost in mail gurr! I wish I had done airline card when returning from my last flight in March or April. I go Thru airlines sites when shopping online to earn miles!
