Listen "Travel Disasters Into Memories: Stories from Turkey & Beyond with Kari Chance"
Episode Synopsis
Today I'm sitting down with someone who's been my partner in questionable decision-making for many years - my former sister-in-law and current travel buddy, Kari Chance. We're diving into our most ridiculous travel mishaps, the kinds of stories that literally had us crying from laughter while recording.Kari is living proof that I won my divorce by keeping my sister-in-law. By day she's a dental hygienist, but she's also a Laura Ericson Group Trips Turkey and Mexico City survivor. When Kari is involved, ordinary travel moments somehow transform into the kind of stories you'll be telling for years.Fair warning: if you've ever wondered how two supposedly responsible adults can turn a simple trip into a comedy of errors, this is the episode for you. From Turkish bath confusion to airport bathroom disasters, we're sharing it all.Guest BioKari Chance (aka "Auntie Kari" or "Uncle Kari" when she's wielding her mini chainsaw) is a dental hygienist from Wisconsin and Laura's former sister-in-law turned travel partner in crime. Known for her love of naps, cats, and creating armpit fart sounds at inappropriate moments, Kari proves that the best travel companions are the ones who aren't afraid to laugh at themselves - even when things go hilariously wrong.Upcoming Trips Mentioned:Cuba: Dec 27, 2025 - Jan 3, 2026Mexico City: Oct 26 - Nov 3, 2025Links & Resources (Kari)Instagram: @adventureswithauntiekariFacebook: @kari.lyn.56Links & Resources (Laura)Follow my personal IG: @lolawhiskeyFollow my business IG: @lauraericsongrouptripsFollow our podcast: @type2travelpodcastLearn more about upcoming trips: lauraericson.comCheck out our podcast page: lauraericson.com/podcastJoin my Facebook group: @lolalovestravelThanks for being here!
