Heyo! Mitch and Day here 👋🏼
We’re just your typical American-Colombian couple determined to live every second of our precious time here on earth to the fullest. After a 10-month solo backpacking trip through South America, I (Mitch) stopped in Cali, Colombia to take salsa dancing classes 💃🏻. I only planned to stay for a couple weeks, but God had other plans for me. I met a cute Colombian girl (Day) in class, those couple weeks turned into a couple years, and before we knew it…we were married 👰🏻🤵🏼
Now we’re traveling the world full time as digital nomads, supporting ourselves by working online 👨💻👩💻
Our goal with these videos is to inspire you to step outside your comfort zone, give you an inside peek at our crazy imperfect lives, and show you that you don’t have to be rich to live an extraordinary life…all you need to do is make the choice!

What are your best tricks for finding the cheapest flights? Share with everyone else in the comments! 🤑
My thing is there's no way out of it. Traveling far to an airport, I still gotta pay toll fees or an Uber
who gotta pay toll fees to the furthest airport etc. So annoying.
Book 2 different carriers and skiplag both directions. They hate it and will bitch at you, but fuck 'em.
hi thanks for your hard work. can u plz record with higher volume? thank you
What is "Going"? How do they prove the incognito mode is not helping?
Search for flights incognito 🥸
Too many extras thrown mid video omg. Give us the tips, then promo your other vids, ask for likes etc. not watching another video. That is so annoying
I knew about the cheaper fares from Europe to USA years ago. Wife lived in UK and was always cheaper for her to fly here then for me to fly there. Like you said about 200 to 300. Faregeek out of the Uk used to be best site for booking. Not sure anymore as Wife lives here now
Just a few things to add, 9/10 times its easier and cheaper to take a positioning flight to then fly direct to your destination, there are also some airports in Europe (where I live so not sure about the US but there will be some there too) which are dirt cheap to fly out of. Budapest, Oslo, and Cairo are probably the biggest ones that come to mind. I saved $5000 USD by flying to Budapest then backtracking to Heathrow, onto JFK and then finally to Honolulu. That fare only costed me $1300 return in business class. Cairo is good for Asia/Australia or South America also, I recently snagged a business class ticket to Sao Paolo with Qatar Airways for $1200 return. That's 36 hours in Q-Suite for $1200. The value can be insane if you are mindful and careful about where you fly from. Just those two examples have saved me $12,000+ if I had've flown from London instead of Cairo/Budapest. Also I'm not sure about in the US, but here in Europe fares are normally cheaper midweek and a lot more expensive at the start of the week and especially the weekend.
sadly this doesn't seem to work if you need to be travelling with as much luggage as possible. (I'm moving from one to another country and unless you have 3 stops and have to self-check-in each time, prices are now literally 3 – 4 TIMES more expensive than a "cheap" price which is actually what USED to be considered a higher price for the same route. FUCK THE WEF BS agendas!!!!!!!!!!!
The comment about the incognito mode is just a subtle plug to a sponsor that he’s using….
I live in Pakistan I need Dubai cheap flight ticket Karachi to dubai
You kinda look like Dylan Sprayberry, nice video.
minor issue. Learn your currency symbols and the difference between pounds and euros. Thanks
Keep in mind when all those people stranded at airports due to cancellations and delays during the holidays and travel seasons. The United States needs to wake up and begin building highspeed bullet train technology which is also, ( fully electric). Americans so gong ho on electric vehicles even if they have to sit around to charge and loose range. They're about electric. Highspeed bullet trains is something the mighty United States of America should of had decades ago. America is supposed to be mighty. Come on America wake up! Highspeed bullet train technology..
Whenever I fly within north america, if I depart on a Tuesday there are usually cheaper options. And I only book 2 weeks in advance
best cheapl flights to dubai
Yes , it needs "Discipline" to find the right ticket… 🙂
Incognito mode definitely works. At least at KLM I saved 100 € recently with booking in incognito mode
Spirit does increase your price it happened to me when I looked for the same route and time multiple times
Hello I'm looking for cheapest flight to Asia ( Vientiane laos ) l don't know how 🙏 Thank you
bro is a goat
If you don't book a seat and skip it, there will be no problem.
If u book a nearer city and stayed there a couple of days, what did u save ?? Since u will pay for accommodation and food
I have tried to do this and I don't see any difference in prices
What's up with the Going page? I cannot get past selecting 2 airports! SMH! The page does nothing and the CONTINUE button is grayed out
I purchesed my ticket for my trip 7 months in advance. Ive seen the prices only steadily increase.
Thanks for you video. Do you or does anyone have any ideas to save money on refundable airfares, or more flexible fares for travel to and from Europe. It seems like the the cheapest flight comes with no refunds or changes and you have to pay extra, like $300 more per ticket go any flexibility. Thanks for any ideas you have.
first of all correct the map of the kingdom of Morocco which exits before USA 15centuries and before UK and recognized your country . it was no kingdom in Europe or in the region , thank you anf fuck all the war makers who create conflicts to sell thier weapons
Hell yeah. Planning on booking a few months in advance, Goldilocks 👍
I have never heard of going?
Yes agree incognito is useless 😂
Not so sure about the goldilocks time frame. I book my own UK tp USA flight and UK to South east Asia flights for work. What I found was about 10 days before I am about to fly, if an airline has not had much luck in selling a certain class (Premium eco seems to be this most of the time) It sells them all on to a agent/tour operator and they then offer them online. My last flight LHR to LAS direct with the airline was £1400 10 days before £.790 online with an agent I Would only advise this on popular destinations that are very well serviced such as UK to USA.
Just be a Gimmiegrant with no ID. You can just walk right on the plane.
So you like order.
how can we start in london if we reside in detroit?
1:10 those prices are in Euros NOT Pounds
It dint need to be bought on the US website it needs to go to, from or through the US
Hi , even I booked free seats why Expedia asked me select seats and each seat from 34$ up? 4 people aer up to 1000$ is that a trick? Thanks

It's insufferable hear his disgusting voice and tone.
I believe it’s illegal to boost flight prices base on passed searches (IE clearing the cache hack). This being said great video and those eyes .. am I right
On the incognito thing; I travel a lot, and I mean, a LOT. And it is patently obvious that if I am hunting fares, when I return to the cheapest carrier to book a flight, they ALWAYS cost more than when I first looked, even if it was only a few minutes ago.
I don't know how they do it, but they certainly do do it. You will not convince me otherwise.
Save 300 but pay for hotel?
what the F++k is going on with your mike dude? are you even using a microphone?
