We never thought we'd find ourselves having a snowball fight with locals on our way to Saddam Hussein's bombed out palace in the middle of Kurdish Iraq, but that is surprisingly exactly what we did today! Interested in traveling to Iraqi Kurdistan? Haval, our guide, was awesome, and we highly recommend booking a tour with him. The easiest way to get in contact with him is via email: haval@iraqikurdistanguide.com.

We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this YouTube channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
