My bad! I always get it mixed up. Is it Denmark, Norway and Sweden only?

Well, the most traditional understanding of Scandinavia is usually just Denmark, Norway and Sweden. However, back in the day (when Iceland was Danish), sometimes Iceland and the Faroe Islands as well as Åland and Gotland were sometimes included in the understanding of belonging to Scandinavia. However, that is definitely not the understanding today. To make it simple today, Scandinavia is simply Denmark, Norway and Sweden and then there is the Nordic Region and it is within the definition of the Nordic Region that you may find Finland, Åland, Gotland, Iceland etc.

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing🙂

Ou cool! Didn’t notice that

"A Brother Abroad", "Nomadic Matt", and "The Broke Backpacker" are ones I remember reading a lot!

That sounds beautiful!! I’d love to go back to some of the Scandinavian countries in the winter one day😍

Thank you❤️❤️

There’s a bunch all over Central America and Southeast Asia depending on where you wanna go! They are great moments of connection and I highly recommend 🫶🏼

It was SO good! Thank you🩷 honestly I’m jealous too of people who got to see her sing more songs from the speak now era! We only got one! But wow what a fantastic show🤩

Thank you 🙂 I stayed at The Nomad House! It wasn't the best but it was alright. Total party hostel though so be warned haha

@@RoamwithRach Thanks for the quick reply! Did you hear of better ones to stay in in the area while you were there? I'll be going to the Full Moon Party in July!

@NinaTrouve-td4wk I’m not sure! Look at the reviews on hostelworld and book early and you might find some better options. I booked a month before and most were sold out haha! It gets busy each full moon party. I hope this helps and I hope you have an amazing time🙂

Hi! You’d have to check the rules on the airline website but for backpacks I’ve never had an issue with 40L or under. On some flights I see people bringing small duffel bags as their carry on item. You’re typically allowed on most flights to have one personal item and one carry on item. But each airline is different with their rules. Hope that helps🙂

Thank you🫶🏼

Thank you so much🥰

I’m currently on a trip! Check my instagram to see🤫

Lots of countries are safe to travel to for women! It all depends on your comfort level so if you're not comfortable don't do it 🙂

@@RoamwithRach i wouldnt let my female partner go. And safe is relative,even in a safe country you can run into a predator

I am a solo female and just traveled to 22 countries in the last few months. Zero problems and gained so much more confidence!

Thank you! You will 100% meet people and make so many friends (if not in my comment section, then definitely once you are there!). Just be super friendly and don't be shy to say hello and introduce yourself. You're going to have a great time. Being nervous is just another way of being excited hehe!!

Thank you so much! And wow that’s interesting. I guess at the end of the day a reusable bag is better to have. Less waste you’re right! Thank you for watching from Kenya🙂

This was such a sweet comment to read😭 thank you so so much!! I appreciate the love on all my videos. I’m so glad they’ve been helpful. And ahhh I’m glad the curls are looking good I’ve been trying haha❤️❤️

Also, just thought, would you be able to make a video possibly about how you navigate having a job and travelling? I think you mentioned that you work part-time? But I may have heard that wrong! 😊

@@Julia-gr7rh I have a career job but I'm in a position that is extremely flexible. I also work part-time jobs when I am home for extra income. I think because my career right now is fairly unique I don't think many would be able to relate to it for a video. Maybe I can answer some questions in a future Q&A... but lets just say its hard having a career job and travelling haha! I make it work because I love travelling so so much 🙂

@@RoamwithRach good to know, thank you so much for the response!

I caved and ended up keeping all three! Hahaha

LOL

Southeast Asia was WAY cheaper overall and I could eat out every single meal versus in Central America I went to the grocery store sometimes to save money haha!

No I didn’t! I don’t like to travel with white things because they tend to get dirty too easily. This tank top is from a brand called AYM 🙂

I’m travelling next month on a shorter trip. But I always have some trips planned hehe!! I’m so glad I inspired you to backpack Southeast Asia. That’s amazing❤️❤️ &thank you!!!

I know a friend who did! She said it was ok but it rained A LOT

Hi girl! Omg this is the BEST comment ever haha!! We are matching now❤️ I hope you had an amazing time as well

@@RoamwithRach thank you!! also the brand of your microfiber towel is from decathlon! It’s a popular company (except for the states sadly) and I’ve bought so much from there since there are a couple stores in Thailand haha, highly recommend you check one out if you go back to Europe or Thailand!

Good to know!! Thank you🙂

Some people bring an 80L, some people bring a suitcase. So I think this is light in relation to that, yes!🙂

@@RoamwithRach im taking a 40 for a years travelling good luck me !

Utatlan Spanish School!

I’m so glad it was helpful❤️ I’ve also made vlogs when I was in SEA so that might get you extra excited hehe! I hope you have an AMAZING time travelling

Muchas gracias! Todavia tengo algo que apprender pero voy a senguir practicando Español

@@RoamwithRach que bueno me gusta tus videos espero que vuelvas pronto a Guatemala 🇬🇹❤️

No they don’t! I’ll put nipple covers on if I feel like it. I got reusable nipple covers from “nippy”. For my tank tops I get them from dynamite, aritzia, and I really like this environmental company called “AYM”

For me I didn’t notice too much of a change thankfully. My periods were heavier. I know they said it can take some time for the hormones to get out of your system when you’re starting natural cycles so be mindful of that as well. I would also recommend following some hormone experts online to see them share tips/strategies to make the process go as easily as it can🙂

Hi Kelly! I just did extra weight training on my legs/core to strengthen them. I also tried to do extra cardio to get my endurance up. I found stairmaster and walking on the treadmill at steep inclines helpful. Try to do this for a couple months before your trip if you can. Your body will thank you haha!

Hi Julia! Thanks so much for your kind words. I love the bag still yes! I use it on every backpacking trip I go on. I wish I could tell you where that packing cube is from but I forget I’m sorry!! It was a very long time ago I got it

@@RoamwithRach thanks for getting back to me!! No worries at all, I see MEC has one kind of similar in shape so I might give that one a shot. I was wondering also do you think you could do an updated budgeting video about how you save up for your trips? I’d love to see that, but I love all your content 🥰

I feel like I still use a lot of the tips from my last video. But if I think of anything new I’ll consider making a new one hehe! I am putting together a breakdown of how much I spent in Central America though if that helps so stay tuned for that🙂

Thank you! You totally should. Just make sure you train before you do it. It was so hard

Travelling on my period is not as challenging with a menstrual cup and period underwear. Those things help a lot. I find it is easy to rinse your underwear yes! I’ll just rinse them when I can and then hang them in my bunk if I’m staying in a hostel (I try to find a place that’s private so people don’t think I’m strange hanging up my underwear haha!). The thing I’ve been struggling with lately is my menstrual cup in countries where the water is not drinkable. Because I don’t think it’s safe to clean your cup with non drinkable water. So something to be mindful of. I know some girls have told me they will boil their cup in a hostel kitchen. I feel weird doing that sometimes lol!

@@RoamwithRach omg lol!! I hadn't considered the dangers of rinsing your cup with non drinkable water but that makes so much sense! I usually use period underwear but honestly for my next big trip I'm considering just getting an iud or going on birth control just so I don't have to deal with the inconvenience of my period lmao. My first few days are just unbearable

@taxfrauddotcom yes I thought I’d mention that because so many women I talk to say they didn’t think of it! You do what’s best for you but I do know people who just use period underwear and they’re good🙂

Aw I’m so glad my tips were helpful! LOL I’m glad my bougie hippie-ness is relatable

Hi Amina! Thank you so much that’s so kind of you to say🥰 I’ve used World Nomads on my last couple trips. They’re a pretty reputable travel insurance company

It’s from Garage! Thank you🙂

Thank you!!!

Thank you so much🥹 I’m so glad it was helpful!! And thank you for the well wishes on my trip. I hope you have an amazing time in Greece that sounds like an awesome trip

🥰❤️✨

Thank you🙂 And omg travelling so much makes me realize how Canadian I sound sometimes haha! I hope you’re having an amazing time in Vietnam

Thank you!! That’s coming on Sunday🤩

You should watch my Southeast Asia packing video! For that trip it was almost 4 months haha you can do a lot with just a little. Backpacking makes you realize you don’t need a lot🙂

Hello! You’re going to have such a fantastic time. It’s good to do things that scare you, just keep your wits about you and you’ll be good. Thailand is very well travelled and I’d say pretty safe. I had a great time when I went🙂

Maybe technically you do, but nobody really checks that in Thailand! Be safe though, this is how a lot of backpackers get serious injuries

Hi! Thanks for watching🙂 I was in North Vietnam in February. It’s definitely warmer there in the summer months. However, if you’re backpacking Southeast Asia the summer, that is their raining season so be aware of that. That’s why I chose to backpack Jan-April

@@RoamwithRach Thanks a lot for your quick answer! 😊 We are going in March/April, so I was wondering how much long trousers and warm clothes do I need...

@KristynaU you’re going to have so much fun! Yes maybe bring a pair or two of pants and sweaters. You can always buy some jackets there if needed like I did. They have cool “made in Vietnam” stores with active outdoor clothes

Hi! Yes I already made a video it’s called “how to plan a trip”. I go into detail about how I do it all. If you go to my channel page I think it’s featured on there so that might be an easy way to find it🙂 cheers!

Hi Anna! Thank you❤️ Omg so this was actually very hard in some countries as I couldn’t even clean it in the sink with the countries water. Sometimes I just had to cave and use tampons BUT recently I’ve been talking to some friends who said they use a special soap that’s made for menstrual cups. I’ve also heard about people using bottled water with sterilizing tablets
