Staying laser focused on their dreams of living an untethered lifestyle, Ernesto and Taisa planned and saved for their multi year, multi country overland trip for two years. Leaving what most of us consider "dream jobs" in Seattle Washington on July 18, 2015.
Tune into their three part episode to hear their stories of adventure along with SO many tips and lessons learned along the way. Ernesto and Taisa are like all of the guests featured on the GHT Overland Podcast; extremely friendly, very fun to talk with and so gracious with their time. Sharing their stories and experiences from Overlanding The Americas over the last two and half years. They provide border crossing tips, gear insights, along with a bit of a reality check when you embark on a multi year overlanding trip. Life happens and you can't be right there to hug a loved one, or to celebrate special life moments. A prospective we've not heard before on the podcast, however one that we greatly appreciate and have taken to heart.
