What a great day for our first international episode. We interviewed @pinatravels who is the host of @alpacamybagspod, a podcast that chats about responsible travel (which we highly recommend subscribing to). Toronto is such a cool city and has so much more than a spaceship-looking tower, Drake and Bieber Fever. We're on the lookout for a Scott's Cheap Flights deal to the fourth largest city in North America!! 

Speaking of Scott's Cheap Flights... show your support by signing up through our link: https://scottscheapflights.com/local it's only $49/year and your ROI will double or triple or even quadruple on your first flight. No lie... we're walking testimonies.
