Creator's Key Takeaways

Travel is freedom, one of the last great sources of legal adventure. Travel is intensified living with maximum thrills per minute.

Affording travel is a matter of priorities.

You'll find that the best acts are free and the best seats are the cheap ones.

If you don't enjoy a place, maybe you don't know enough about it.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Rick Steves' travel philosophy encourages people to explore less-touristy areas of destinations and to become immersed in the local people's way of life. Rick has literally โ€œwritten the bookโ€ on traveling to Europe with his series of guidebooks on European travel. I often cite Rick Steves as one of my inspirations for starting Yellow Productions. In this video Iโ€™ll share 20 things that Iโ€™ve learned from Rick Steves to form my own travel philosophy. Iโ€™ll also share some of the areas that Rick and I disagree on when it comes to how to travel. โœ”๏ธ You might enjoy watching my video about How to AVOID JET LAG Like a Pro Traveler here: https://youtu.be/0a45-mQDpgc ๐Ÿ˜€ WHEN'S THE NEXT LIVE STREAM?
