Episode notes

So often in life we romanticise things in our head when in reality, it rarely lives up to expectations, and the same goes for travel destinations. In this episode we discuss some of the destinations we have over-hyped in our own heads. Equally, we explore some of the places we didn't expect much of that ended up blowing us away. We hope that this episode lives up to the hype and that you won't be disappointed!
