Show by Two Guys on a Plane
Between climbing mountains in Peru, exploring the chaos of India, and celebrating our ninth wedding anniversary in Nepal, we have covered a lot of ground this year, and this week we are sharing the highlights, the surprises, and the stories that didn’t make it to Instagram. It was two group trips and one very non-casual “low-key” anniversary adventure, and each one was completely different from the last.We recap showing up in Lima in the middle of a city-wide celebration, the difference between Machu Picchu’s two circuits (one of which nearly did Andrew in), watching the Taj Mahal glow at sunrise, and a Nepal trip that ended up being more peaceful than either of us expected. Plus, Rich’s story about a very annoying passenger on the flight home, a plea for five stars on Apple Podcasts, and a thank you to Staff Traveler for helping us get from India to Nepal on a budget.Episode Highlights:[0:00] Welcome to Episode #58![1:27] Drew on “vacation mode”[2:12] Rich & the Karen inflight[4:35] 5 stars on Apple Podcasts![6:31] Peru taught us a valuable lesson[9:45] Our immersion in Lima [12:21] The beauty of Machu Picchu[16:07] The biggest surprise about Peru[20:35] Unpacking India[22:12] Delhi was cool and overwhelming![24:25] Indian food was just amazing![27:53] Agra and Taj Mahal[29:26] Taj Mahal took our breath away[32:17] The Pink City[34:19] Shout out to the SHEROES![38:10] StaffTraveler is our travel buddy[40:50] Was Nepal the best choice?[42:27] Stumbling into an art festival in Kathmandu [44:05] Sharing momos[45:40] Having a local guide helps a lot[47:38] Stepping back in time in Bhaktapur[49:04] Why Andrew wasn't able to climb Mt.
