On Episode 011, I explore the relationship between travel and board games. I discuss how games can inspire travel, my criteria for finding the right games to pack, how to fit gaming into your itinerary, and ways that games can produce meaningful travel mementos and memories.

I recently was a guest on the Ordinary Sherpa Podcast to discuss board games and their tie to adventure & connection. It’s a great show and I recommend giving other episodes a listen too if you are interested in family adventure! You can listen here: https://t.co/lo6VUfWdVd
