In this episode of The Getawayz Podcast, Erin, Lisa, and Dylan dive into their favorite theme parks across Europe — from haunted houses and flying rollercoasters to charming fairytale forests and a secret swan ride. Whether you love the adrenaline of FLY at Phantasialand, the storybook magic of Efteling, or the wild vertical drop at Ferrari Land, we've got something for every type of theme park fan. Plus: where to bring your dog, where to stay, what to eat, and the one park that made everyone clap at the end. 🎢🌍🎡

In this episode, We're diving into our time in Amsterdam — the canals, the chaos, the charm — and answering the big question: is it actually worth visiting? (Spoiler alert: yes. Always yes.)

We’ll share what we loved, what surprised us, how it felt visiting with a teen, and a few places that didn’t quite live up to the hype. Plus, fair warning: my Dutch pronunciation is truly tragic — but I powered through for the love of stroopwafels.

So grab your bike (or don’t, we have thoughts), and let’s talk Amsterdam. You can read more about Amsterdam on our website here.

Airbnb or hotel? Train, plane, or rental car? Tip or no tip? In this episode, we play a rapid-fire game of This or That—debating the best (and worst) ways to travel around Europe. As two Americans living in the Netherlands, we’ve got opinions—and stories—from real life on the road. We cover everything from public transit and shoulder season to drinking tap water and what to wear in churches. It’s fast, fun, and full of travel wisdom.

Join us as we explore Denmark’s most family-friendly cities — Copenhagen, Odense, and Aarhus — with a teenager, a dog, and a taste for adventure. From trampolines and castles to rainbow rooftops and baby moose sightings (yes, really), this episode covers our favorite spots, dog-friendly finds, and travel tips for making the most of Denmark with kids. Whether you’re into Viking museums, beaches, or ziplining through castle gardens, Denmark has something for you.

In this episode, Erin, Lisa, and Dylan sit down to ask each other the real questions about life in Europe—from surprising cultural differences to what they miss (or don’t) about life in the US. We also answer listener questions about moving abroad, navigating daily life, and what it’s really like raising a teen in another country. Expect laughs, honest moments, and a little culture shock.

Whether you're dreaming of a move across the pond or already living it, this episode is full of insight, stories, and the occasional “Wait… what?” moment.

Whether it’s a snowy winter wonderland or a summer mountain retreat, Innsbruck and Aqua Dome deliver the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. In this episode of The Getawayz Podcast, we’re sharing our favorite things to do in Innsbruck, from skiing and cable cars to charming Old Town strolls. Then, we’re diving into Austria’s Aqua Dome, where steaming thermal pools meet jaw-dropping alpine views.

🌟 Whether you're planning a cozy winter getaway or a summer escape, we’ve got you covered!

Venice is one of those places that never gets old—literally, it’s sinking, but that’s a conversation for another day. In this episode, we dive into our many visits to the floating city, from first-time tourist must-dos to hidden gems we’ve discovered over the years. We reminisce about staying at the legendary Gritti Palace, Lisa’s unexpected gondolier friendship (because, of course, that happened), and the time Erin and Dylan experienced an eerily empty Venice during COVID.

We also chat about the best times to visit (spoiler: not summer), why the Select Spritz beats Aperol, and how Venice is fighting back against overtourism. Plus, we share some incredible local eats, glass-blowing on Murano, and why getting lost in Venice is the best plan you can have.

Grab a drink (preferably a spritz) and join us for a lively, personal, and slightly chaotic deep dive into Venice, Italy.
