Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I’m joined by Melissa Barronton from the Sunshine Travelers Podcast, a source I’ve come to trust for practical, real world travel advice.I first discovered Melissa and her husband Scott through their podcast and Instagram and never expected them to respond when I sent a question during their Egypt trip question box. They not only replied, but thoughtfully answered my son’s questions too, and I’ve been hooked ever since.We talk about what travel looks like beyond highlight reels. Melissa shares the trips that shaped her most, what 2025 taught her about how she wants to travel in 2026, and how Sunshine Travelers helps people plan confident, thoughtful trips through their podcast, destination guides, packing resources, and travel planning services.This episode is especially for anyone who wants to travel smarter and safer while still visiting dream destinations. We cover driving internationally, personal safety, tech security, and how to make big trips feel manageable for families, couples, and solo travelers. Some of my personal favorite resources they share are their packing and planning guides, and the deals they share through their Travel Deal Insiders!
