Two suitcases each.
We're Jeff and Zachary, a married gay couple. We sold the house and have been traveling the world full-time since January 2022. TravelwithJZ is where we're putting what we've learned: the cities, the apartments, and the unglamorous parts nobody posts about.
The route so far
A few of the places we've unpacked.
- Jan 2022 Madrid Spain. Day one. Also, COVID.
- Jan 2022 Porto Portugal. Where it actually started.
- May 2022 Tirana Albania. We keep coming back.
- 2022 Athens Greece. Schengen days well spent.
- Sep 2022 Sarandë Albania. Our first winter.
Real talk
We came for a few weeks. We stayed the winter.
That's most of nomad life, honestly: plans that change, Schengen math on a spreadsheet, and finding out whether the Wi-Fi survives a storm. We're writing it up the way we'd tell a friend, numbers included.
What's coming
Written from the couch we actually slept on.

City guides
Places we've lived, not passed through. What a month really costs, which neighborhoods work, and how it feels to be two guys holding hands there.
-
Apartment reviews
Wi-Fi speeds, desk situations, mattresses, noise and landlords. Everything the listing photos leave out.

Nomad life, honestly
Visas and the 90/180 rule, health insurance, money, burnout, and living out of two suitcases each as a couple.
Not live yet.
