  • Why You Need to Become a Sports Fan When You Move Abroad
    Jun 29 2026

    If you told us 4 years ago that we would spend our friday nights at the pub screaming at our teams… we would laugh!

    But when you move abroad, taking up sports is one of the easiest ways to integrate and make friends.

    In honor of The World Cup being on, Taylor and Lili talk about how sports factor into living abroad. And TBH, they are a bigger factor than we ever thought!

    We discuss:

    • The different culture of sports for children

    • Why the USA actually is good at one element of sports

    • How to adopt a team and make friends that way

    • Cultural differences in sports

    • How to play sports to make friends and form community abroad

  • How To Choose Your New Home Abroad: Green Flags To Look For in a City
    Jun 22 2026

    Not every dream city abroad is made equal… some are walkable, some are quaint, some have world class entertainment, some have the hobbies you love. You just need to find the perfect city for you.

    So what are the green flags to look out for? Taylor and Lili have each moved to very different cities and learned which parts of them make them a great fit and which parts aren’t so great.

    We discuss:

    • How to know what to prioritize in a city

    • Why certain cities are great for one person and terrible for another

    • If scouting trips ever actually work

  • Every Country Thinks They’re The Healthiest: Health Standards Abroad That May Shock You
    Jun 15 2026

    In Spain, they think they are the healthiest in the world… and then they pull out a pack of cigs. In America, they think they have the best healthcare in the world… then you get a bill for $5000. In Australia, they say they are the most active country on earth… but they get a lot of skin cancer.

    Basically, we all think we have health figured out! In reality, we all have a lot to learn from each other.

    While this video was inspired by the differing menstrual products out there we get into so much more like:

    • Male body standards

    • Medication vs lifestyle change differences

    • Why Europeans think they’re so much better than Americans…

    And more!
