In Episode 2, Meghan and Damon dive into their first major stop: Portugal. They talk about unexpectedly falling in love with the country’s kid-friendly culture — from high-end restaurants that hand out washable markers, to resorts that actually want your kids around. They dish on the holy grail of family hotels (shout out to Martinhal), tell stories of scavenger hunts, child-minders, and one very unfortunate Corgi fart, and explore what makes travel with little kids actually doable. Oh, and Damon has thoughts about cruises. Strong ones.

Description

What happens when two burned-out parents sell their house, pack up their kids, and try to “find themselves” in Portugal, Mexico, and beyond? Trips & Giggles is a brutally honest, sometimes hilarious, sometimes emotional podcast about what it’s really like to uproot your life and live abroad as a family.
Join Meghan (a psychologist with a side obsession for Facebook groups) and Damon (a creative homebody who didn't ask for this adventure, but shows up with humor and a lot of strong unsubstantiated opinions) as they navigate a six-month, multi-country experiment in worldschooling, remote work, and figuring life out on the road.
This isn’t a guide to worldschooling. It’s not a Pinterest-perfect travel diary. It’s two parents, one podcast mic, and zero chill trying to stay curious while raising kids in unfamiliar places with semi-working childcare and spotty Wi-Fi.
If you’ve ever thought about selling everything and traveling the world with your kids, or if you just like eavesdropping on two people being extremely anxious and real, this one’s for you.
