The Devasting Impact of Microplastics and How Travelers Can Help

This article is a guest post by Katie Pierce.

As responsible travelers, we have a natural affinity for nature and the environment. We understand our climate basics, and we want to lend a helping hand in every way possible. Ideally, we want to preserve it so that the generations after us can experience what we’ve experienced. So that they can see the beauty we are now able to capture with our eyes and our cameras.

However, this isn’t our reality. Sadly, not every tourist or traveler feels compelled to protect the planet on which we live, especially our oceans. Over the years, more and more organizations have been raising awareness about protecting our oceans. This is because our bodies of water—and everything living in them—are in grave danger.

Travel Insurance for Digital Nomads:
World Nomads vs. SafetyWing

Travel insurance for digital nomads. It’s not a sexy topic, and nobody likes to pay for it. Some people even wonder, is it worth it?

We’re thankful we’ve never needed to use our travel insurance in over ten years of travel. *knocking on all the wood*

But while we’ve been living and traveling abroad we’ve known people who have had bad accidents, had expensive things stolen, or gotten very ill unexpectedly.

Some had travel insurance and some did not. All of those who didn’t wish they did.

Personally, we think if you’re going to travel, whether on a short trip or full-time like we do, having travel insurance is a necessity.

Which Travel Insurance Company Should You Choose?

There are two insurance companies that the majority of travelers and digital nomads use: World Nomads and SafetyWing. 

We have used each company at different times during our travels. In this article, we’ll go over what each one covers and the pros and cons of using them. 

Before we start, if you’re new here, hi! We’re Jen and Stevo. We help aspiring travelers and people who want to start the digital nomad lifestyle figure out how to make it happen through our YouTube channel and this blog. 

We’ve been living outside of the US since 2011 and have been digital nomads since 2018. So we’ve got some helpful advice to share whether you’re just starting out on your travelers, or even if you’re an experienced traveler. There’s always more to learn!  

Now let’s talk about travel insurance for digital nomads! [Read more…]

10 Tips for Finding Cheap International Flights

10 Tips for Finding Cheap International Flights to Asia - Two Can Travel These 10 tips and tricks will help you find and book cheap flights for your next trip abroad

There is something SO exhilarating about buying plane tickets. It’s the purchase that screams, “I am really doing this!” and puts trip planning into motion.

When you find a cheap flight deal, that amps up the excitement even more. Plus, you can spend all the money you save on your flights having even more fun once you reach your destination!

To be honest, there is no secret formula to finding a cheap flight. Scoring a great flight deal involves a combination of strategy, planning, and patience. And a little bit of luck never hurt.

We’ve taken countless flights over the last ten years. We’ve traveled all over Asia, Europe, and have gone back and forth to the US, and we’ve scored some amazing deals! But we’ve also made some mistakes (even this many years in) that ended up costing us big time (and not just our pride).

We’ll teach you the best tricks we know, and how to avoid our mistakes, so you can find the cheapest flights for your next trip.  [Read more…]
