In this episode, Matt takes a close look at two different tools and resources that can make your international travel easier in 2022.

The first tool is Apple AirTags, which can help if an airline loses your luggage. Another is Sherpa, a website with easy-to-read, up-to-date information on where you can travelled and what’s required to enter your destination. This has proven a very helpful resource when travelling overseas during and after the COVID-19 pandemic!

This episode includes an interview with David Riley, the Chief of Staff at Sherpa.
