The Amateur Travel Society Podcast

A Northern European Cruise to Scotland, Iceland and Norway sounds like a perfect vacation. What could go wrong?

In Episode 5, we hear about everything that went right including the service on the Norweigan Cruise, quaint book stores, Scottish community markets and the stunning sights of Iceland and Norway...but you are going to hear about everything that went haywire and how and experienced travel like Cindy, continued moving forward.

I guarantee that you have never heard a trip report like this!

Paige Hall joins Chris to share her experience in running the Marathon in Athens, Greece! In addition to discussing the sights, food, and all-around amazing experience of being in Athens, we talk about some training tips and thoughts for people who might think it's a little too late for them to start training for this type of race.

Viva Las Vegas!!

Or should I say..."I do" in Las Vegas!

Join us as we chat with a longtime friend in Carly Grezlik as we hear all about her Wedding experience in Sin City! It was so much fun to catchup with an old friend and see that she's doing great and hear about the whirlwind experience in Las Vegas including staying at the Waldorf Astoria, dining at top of The Stratosphere Tower, getting $5 tattoos and..of course...the Wedding Chapel!

On this Episode of The Amatuer Travel Society, I am joined by Jen Baughman to talk about recent (and interesting) travel news. We discuss TSA changes and security issues, rental car rage, airplane routes being eliminated, gas costs, and major airplane carrier ratings!

We promise that this is unlike any news that you have heard before and we hope you smile and laugh as we bring you the news that helps all of us AMATEURS!

C'mon...admit it...you missed us terribly! LOL

Well, we are back! Sorta. For now, it's just me but after 1.5 years, I wanted to rejoin everyone and drive you all crazy on a semi-regular basis! In answering your question, is this the same show as The Dubs? HECK NO! You'll have to listen to hear all about my crazy idea and how I hope to entertain you.

Lastly, please be patient with me as I make sure that all the connections and back end conversions from the Dubs to The Amateur Travel Society are correct and shoot me a line if you see something that needs addressing.

For now...Thanks everyone! It's good to be back!
