They are also the chosen destinations of the American Abroad co-hosts: Jen is in Mexico, and Stephanie is in Portugal. In this episode, Jen and Stephanie (playfully) debate the benefits of both and which is better, and they both share their process on how they each ended up where they did. Topics include proximity to the US, walkable vs. drivable cities, weather, food, and much more!
