Justin Orgias joins Matt from Mexico City and starts off talking about his parents’ heritage from Grenada and his experience growing up in a Caribbean immigrant community in Toronto. He then shares his experience of moving to Atlanta, meeting his wife, starting a family, and then deciding to travel the world full-time with no base. Justin talks about his family’s experiences living in Colombia, Brazil, and Spain, and taking a special family trip to Morocco for Christmas. He explains how his family meets other digital nomad families, how they handle schooling and childcare for their kids and gives tips for parents considering the digital nomad lifestyle. Justin then reflects on how travel has impacted him, his marriage, and his kids. He also reflects on his experience navigating anti-Blackness around the world, and shares tips for how we can be more ethical, sustainable, and thoughtful travelers. Finally, Matt and Justin discuss the upcoming Black Travel Summit and how you can meet them both there in person at a discounted rate.
