In this episode, we take a hard look at one of the world’s most hyped travel destinations: Iceland. From breathtaking waterfalls and black sand beaches to eye-watering prices and unexpected crowds, this is the full reality check travelers need. The episode explores where Iceland still feels magical, how to avoid the most common mistakes, what route to actually take, and why it’s not the trip for everyone.

Mentioned in this episode:

• Skógafoss & Seljalandsfoss waterfalls
• Snaefellsnes Peninsula – Iceland in miniature
• East Fjords – including Seyðisfjörður
• Mývatn Nature Baths (North Iceland alternative to Blue Lagoon)
• Secret Lagoon, Flúðir
• Golden Circle (Þingvellir, Gullfoss, Geysir)

Paris is the most visited city in the world — again. But what’s it really like to visit in peak summer? This episode is not another picture-perfect postcard. It’s a guide through both the magic and the mess of Paris in June and July: the crowds, the quiet corners, the cafés worth walking to, and the moments that feel more cinematic than the Eiffel Tower ever could.

We talk about:
– Whether it’s worth visiting the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre
– What to skip, and what to slow down for
– The rhythm of Parisian life, beyond the Instagram version
– How to not be “that tourist”
– And the quiet, everyday poetry that tourists usually miss

Mentioned in this episode:

• Views: Trocadéro, rooftop at Galeries Lafayette
• Museums: Musée de l’Orangerie, Musée Rodin, Picasso Museum
• Neighborhoods: Canal Saint-Martin, Rue des Martyrs, Butte-aux-Cailles, Le Marais, Place des Vosges, Parc des Buttes-Chaumont
• Travel tips: Learn to say “Bonjour,” avoid overplanning, and leave space for stillness

🎧 If you’re heading to Paris this summer, this one’s for you. And if you’re not — maybe it’ll make you want to go in the fall.

Eliza returns from a solo trip to Slovenia’s quiet capital — Ljubljana — and sits down with Russel to unpack a city that doesn’t shout, but gently lingers. From river reflections and fog-covered castles to a ceramicist named Luka and the silence of a jazz bar, this episode isn’t about checklists or landmarks. It’s about stillness, sincerity, and the rare magic of a place that doesn’t perform for tourists.

🎧 In a world rushing forward, what happens when a city asks you to slow down?
