Zee Michaelson Travel

Curious about how to turn your road trips into unforgettable adventures? Join us on this episode of the Zee Michelson Travel Podcast as we explore the delightful and diverse experiences of traveling. This week, Jay Lawrence and I share our personal journeys with learning new languages using the Duolingo app, diving into our attempts at German, Spanish, and Gaelic. We then transition to Jay’s road trip to Champaign, Illinois, where he visited his sister, explored the University of Illinois, and had a memorable meal in Chinatown.
Ever wondered about the hidden gems along Route 66 or the marvels of the vast transportation system in India? We bring you fascinating facts and nostalgic trips, including a visit to the historic Funks Grove in Bloomington, Illinois. Our journey continues as we describe our awe-inspiring visit to the Ark Encounter in Kentucky. This isn’t just any replica; it’s a colossal and meticulously crafted version of Noah’s Ark. We'll walk you through its layout, the stunning details, and practical tips for your visit, such as ticket options and nearby accommodations.
Ready to pack your bags and hit the road? We'll wrap up the episode with tales from our ongoing travel adventures, including a delightful stay at the Drury Hotel in Georgia and Jay’s dining experiences at Jalisco's.
