Coffee Made Out Of Poop Actually Tastes Good!

You gotta love traveling- you do things half way around the world that you would never think of doing at home. In fact, you pay money to do things half way around the world that you wouldn’t even try for free at home!

This is Exhibit A.

I was in Bali for the inaugural Ultra Beach Bali, and on my off day, I decided to go around the island. A DJ told me about the Kopi Luwak coffee aka cat poop coffee aka the most expensive coffee in the world. I had to try it! And, well, it was shockingly really yummy. It was smooth, strong, and didn’t have a bitter aftertaste. I’m also the type of gal that likes my coffee black and my Scotch straight, so take my opinion for what it’s worth. And yes, I hope you’re impressed by my beverage choices.

My TV Show Premiere’s Tonight! How Did This Happen?!

Jun5post

 

Tonight is the night! Vacation Chasers– formerly known as the #SuperSecretTravelTVShow on my social media- premieres tonight on HLN at 9PM Eastern/6 PM Pacific!

I’m currently in Atlanta promoting the show on HLN’s Morning Express with Robin Meade, The Daily Share, and Weekend Express. For years, I’ve been interviewing television personalilambshoesties and musicians, and now I’m in the celebrity’s shoes! Although, I bet mine are more comfortable…

Joking aside, this is a really surreal moment. Vacation Chasers is something I never thought would actually happen. Most people in the world want to host their own travel show. I’m sure there’s some poll out there saying it’s right next to astronaut, movie star, and President as dream jobs for kids. But, as what happens when you get older, reality starts to sink in. Everyone in their mother- from agents to casting directors to producers- said the same thing: if you’re not a male backpacker and a green beret, you’re not hosting your own travel show. So, I accepted this truth, and resigned myself to creating my own travel videos for YouTube– as a very time-intensive and expensive passion project, I might add. I did this for years, until I met Rachel Rudwall through our management. We decided, hey, two blondes are better than one, and re-launched my YouTube channel as How2Travelers. With 18 months of hard work, dedication, early onset of carpel tunnel, and possibly a few meltdowns, we were plucked out from YouTube and are the stars of HLN’s Vacation Chasers.

So what is this show all about?

If you like House Hunters, then you’re going to LOVE Vacation Chasers! And not just because I’m in it. 😉 Rachel and I are two travel experts who compete to create the best vacations for our clients. After stalking our clients (errr “researching”), Rachel and I each put together a dream itinerary for our clients. Using our imagination and pulling a lot of favors, we come up with 5 star itineraries on a usually 2 star budget. The client can only pick one vacation to go on, and if they’re smart, they will choose mine. 🙂

So, come join the adventure and please root for #TeamAndrea when Vacation Chasers airs tonight on HLN (9pm Easter/6pm Pacific, in case you forgot from three paragraphs ago). Feel free to live tweet me @AndreaFeczko.

My #SuperSecretTravelTVShow

Something big is happening!

You may recognize the pretty blonde in the picture as my How 2 Travelers co-host Rachel Rudwall. We are filming something together, which may sound extraordinarily dull as we film a YouTube show every week. BUT, this is different. It’s for TV, as in “OG”, linear television. It involves travel. AND… that’s about all I can tell you. Oh, besides the fact that it’s going to be your new guilty pleasure and I’m totally okay with that.

Until then, check my Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. I’ll be using the hashtag #SuperSecretTravelTVShow for all the posts where I can announce more information.

In the mean time, here are some exclusive behind the scenes photos from the shoot!

Enjoy! I can’t wait to share more with you soon!

How2Travelers made it to MSN!

Rachel and I were so excited when Trium Entertainment approached us to help write and produce a segment for MSN Travel. We’ve been working tirelessly for over a year on our travel digital series, How2Travelers, putting out new travel video content every week, so to do it for a major internet partner was pretty freaking amazing.

5 Unreal Bucket List Adventures was sooooo much fun to shoot. It went really quickly, despite Rachel and I making fun of each other the entire time. Luckily, a lot of that stuff made the final cut!

For all those doubters– who says two blonde chicks can’t be travel experts?? 😉

Check out the video HERE

Fun fact! This was shot on my birthday. And I say this without any irony, I couldn’t have thought of a better way to spend my big day than with my favorite travel buddy and doing something I absolutely love. <Sigh.> Or gag… Whichever suits your fancy.

How Two Travelers on Vagabondish

This year I went for my passion: travel.

I partnered up with seasoned travel expert Rachel Rudwall and re-branded my YouTube channel from my namesake to How Two Travelers (H2T). It’s been really fun working with a fellow female traveler who is as passionate as I am about seeing new places- and most importantly, making it fun for everyone!

 

So here’s what you can expect to see on H2T:

A Travel Tip is uploaded on the first Monday of the month.

A Food and Drink is on the second Monday of the month.

A Bucket List Adventure is shown on the third Monday of the month.

And a Go or No Travel Review is uploaded on the fourth Monday of the month. It’s basically a movie review, but for travel destinations. I especially like these videos!

 

We launched in October, and thankfully have had a great response. Fodor’s and the New York Observer are following us on twitter, and Vagabondish, one of the most popular travel websites, is now featuring our travel tip videos!
