Episode 2: Adventuring Solo with KMBZ’s Jayme Monacelli

Scroll down to content

In the second episode of COASTLESS, Melissa and Boyce discuss getting up the courage to travel solo.

Boyce recounts his poorly planned solo trip to Peru for a hiking excursion while Melissa tells about how she booked a dumplingmaking class to break up a solo trip to Beijing. The two then discuss the merits of booking travel through a tour group like G Adventures or Intrepid when traveling alone.

After a brief discussion of using hosteling to save money while solo traveling (including Boyce’s recommendation for “The Beehive” a hostel in Rome), Boyce gives his tip for finding Englishspeaking friends when traveling abroad.

KMBZ’s Jayme Monacelli is then welcomed to the pod to discuss her epic road trip where she took her job on the road to explore the United States. She explains the route she took and some of her tips for finding a good Airbnb, as well as how she overcame moments of loneliness.
