When you're traveling, supermarkets often become your second home. Whether you're grabbing a quick snack or crafting a cheap dinner from local dips, meats, and cheeses, those overseas supermarkets become both essential AND iconic.
In this ep, we dive into our fav supermarkets from the places we've visited, the most memorable snacks we came across, and how not being able to read the packaging really can make the experience all the more interesting... -

This week we bring you a mindset hack to travel, and maybe even life, that has time and time again served us well. It's pretty easy to get caught up in the idea and fantasy of a destination before you even step foot into the airport, but what if we all just lowered our expectations?

Normally on this podcast, ALL we do is hype up traveling. But today, we felt like having a bit of a whinge.
Everything has its shit parts, and backpacking is no exception. From packing and repacking your bag 100000000 times, to trying to navigate a brand new train system in a brand new language every second day, it's exhausting work!
So, if you feel like listening to two girls who LOVE travel complain about it like their life depends on it, then settle in... -
Spending over 2 weeks on a remote island off the coast of Scotland... What could go wrong?
This week Tam tells us all about her experience doing a 'workaway,' where she volunteered to do manual labour in exchange for free accom and food on a tiny island in Scotland. She gives us all the tips on what to look for in a workaway, why you should (maybe) look for workaways with reviews and how a workaway can be a lifesaver when it comes to budgeting a long trip...

Welcome to a very special episode where we let you in to our late night car chats. Expect ramble and slightly poor audio but hopefully a semi-interesting discussion (maybe) about entering the wonderful world of 9 to 5 work. After travelling, going back to work can be a shock to the system - in fact it 'sucks ya,' according to Molly - but listen in to hear us try convince ourselves it's all about mindset.

Whether it's saying goodbye to your besties after a three-week holiday, or saying goodbye to random's you met in a hostel that you're convinced you'll be friends with forever... saying goodbye is an emotional ordeal!
This week we delve into the many difficult times we said goodbye on our travels. We tell you how we bawled our eyes out for a whole day after leaving each other on our trip, and explain why we think that hostel friendships are some of the most unique.
Plus, we cover why following those random people you meet overseas on a night out on Instagram, really is a ticket for keeping up with their mundane lives on the other side of the world forever... -
Ahhh festival season... there's nothing else like it.
We just got back from an NYE festival here in Aus and had the absolute best time! Dancing, having zero service, and surviving off nothing but Peanut Butter and Corn Thins really got us thinking about just how different our experience was when we went to a festival in Europe.
In today's ep, we compare Aussie festivals to the ones in Europe. Both are very different - but is there one that's better?
Tune in to find out! <3 -
A three-day motorbike loop through the mountains of Nothern Vietnam? Yesss pleaseeee!
This week we're talking about the incredible experience that is the Ha Giang Loop. From the JAW-DROPPING scenery, to the most memorable karaoke nights, we walk you through exactly what to expect and tell you why this journey is hyped up among the backpackers for a bloody good reason!
We also touch on our safety concerns and explain why deciding to do the Loop was a little scary, especially so last minute... Don't worry, it was safe Mum and Dad!! (Mostly) -
You know those songs that you listen to that just take you straight back to the feeling of travel, or an exact moment in a big trip? Yeah. We have a few of those.

It's not every day you talk about your home city on a travel podcast... But this week we're doing just that!
In this (slightly longer) ep, we give you all our recs on what to do in Melbourne, where to go, and what to expect. Strap yourselves in a slight bit of civic pride and a touch of coffee snobbery... We couldn't help ourselves :) <3 -

Today we present to you a solution - Tripadvisor Cheap Eats. When you're stuck on what to eat, a quick search on Tripadvisor really can save the day. We chat about this, and all things eating out, preparing meals, and feeling guilty about spending money on food in this ep of D.U! <3<3 -
It's a classic backpacker conversation that's probably happening right now in thousands of hostel kitchens and dorm rooms - what are the place you wouldn't go back to? Of course it's completely subjective, but we thought we'd share our list! From big cities to slightly more obscure towns, we've got a few... so listen in and tell us if you agree xx

Love Island... It's a crazy world that we love to watch, but probably could never imagine ourselves being on. That was the case for us... until we backpacked Thailand.
This week, we run you through why staying in hostels in Asia is basically like staring on Love Island ( the U.K version of course). We talk you through all the flirty fun, the grafting, and the wild and unpredictable atmosphere that really does make you feel like the main character... -
Oh the joys of off-season... it's that time of year when it seems that everyone, except us Aussies, has fled home. This week, we're delving into all the reasons why off-season is a slay time to travel. It's cheaper, quieter, and if you go to the right places - sometimes even better than peak season!
But, how do you find the right places to go? Is there ever a right place to go? From Italy to the UK, to Ibiza's closing season weekend, we give you all the tips for the best places to spend your off-season... and explain how it could save you a ton of money.
(P.S. We are very sorry about our audio being a bit sub-par this week... we're not sure what happened there! Will be back to normal next week, but in the meantime, we recommend listening without headphones for a more pleasurable listening experience :) -
WE ARE BACK! And we are in Prague (we wish). But we are talking about Prague, because under no circumstances should it be underestimated. Prague is full of chimney cakes, goulash, flooded bars, castles and strict tour guides. Listen now for our take on what to do, eat and see in the fairytale town that is Prague. (P.S. PLS FORGIVE US FOR OUR SILLY BREAK)
