Welcome to Thrift Therapy, a podcast about chasing dopamine through traveling and thrifting, but in sustainable ways that leave you in a good place. In this episode, we are going for a train journey to Edinburg! I spent a month in Scotland, 3 weeks of that in this wonderful city, so I am giving you some details on what neighborhoods to stay in, where to thrift, and what sights I think are really important to experience. Plus, some of my own cool thrift finds!

Welcome to Thrift Therapy, a podcast about chasing dopamine through traveling and thrifting, but in sustainable ways that leave you in a good place. In this episode, we are going for a train journey through the UK! We start in London and then head to York (and then on to Scotland, but that will be out later) for some sites and some thrifting. I am giving you some details on shopping Portobello Market, one of the most famous flea markets in the world, and how I find kilo sales to attend. I also talk about the joys of train travel, and hope this inspires you to travel and thrift too!

In this episode, I take you on my most unpleasant thrift and travel journey since leaving the US in 2023. I have been setting on this one because it has taken me some time to process why I had such a hard time in such a beautiful country. Hint, mostly had to do with location (and the extreme smoking culture).
I also detail the historical sites and vintage / thrift shops I found worth visiting and why. So don't worry, if you want to check out the city, there are some gems to save for your trip planning.
Will I go back and try again? Should I? You tell me. Leave a comment about what I got wrong (or right) about Sofia.

Welcome to Thrift Therapy, a podcast about chasing dopamine through traveling and thrifting, but in sustainable ways that leave you in a good place. In this episode, I discuss best thrift spots, must see landmarks, and some thrifty travel tips for visiting Paris France.I LOVE PARIS, one of my favorite cities on earth and despite what you may have heard, there are cheap ways to visit and grab some one of kind vintage items. I have been to Paris three times and still have not seen it all, it is a city for walking through and stopping wherever you are drawn in. Once you find the area of the day and get settled in with coffee, grab your phone and open google maps. Since there are so many shops and flea markets, you can always a find a friperie (thrift store), a brocante' (flea market), or a vintage shoppe near you.
New Logo, New goals, and music is back! I did my first vintage market popup since settling in Cyprus this August., and I will share with you what I learned. I have been getting to know the best thrift spots on the Island and making some susty friends. In this episode I will also share with you my favorite thrift shops and places to visit in Cyprus.

Since settling in Cyprus this August, I have been trying to get motivated to work on the podcast again. But OMG so much has changed since we last talked! Including the tools I used to make the show, so bare with me for this episode while I relearn everything.
I went to Italy recently to celebrate my anniversary, so what better time than now to dip the toes back into this medium? My partner in thrift crimes, and life, Marsh, decided to interview me about what makes Rome and other hotspots in Italy so great for thrifters and vintage collectors. In this episode I share with you my favorite thrift shops, flea markets, and places to visit in one of the most gorgeous countries in all of Europe. Be sure and save this episode when planning your Italian vacation so you can hit up all best secondhand spots we discussed here.

I must confess we went to Malaga for work and much to my delight, I loved this city and the thrifting was really great, much better than Ireland and on par with Portugal. The beaches were breathtaking, the architecture was stunning and the weather was lovely at that time of year, alternating between chilly and warm, , the sights were truly enchanting. I never took a train, bus or car, the city is very walkable (wear comfy shoes though). And my god the PASTRIES! We went all over the place but our favorite spots were some tourist locations truly worth the hype and some off the beaten path parks. If you want a list of thrift spots, cool places to sightsee, and pictures of all the things Malaga, visit the website.

This week I tell you about my most recent thrift trip finds, the problems with Anchor sponsorship due to changes since the pandemic, and I talk with Keyana Michel pronounced (Key-Yana) (Me-Shell). Key is a 29 year old resale fashion entrepreneur from Boston, Massachusetts. She runs are sale fashion media brand called Key To Fashion and the community organization Blacks Who Thrift, inspired by her Narts conference trip to Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2017.
As a Black woman, what stuck with her was that "People were constantly telling me along my journey how 'Black people don’t thrift' and it’s something that we don’t do; and I knew that wasn’t true... I was so driven and motivated to create a community that looked like me, and loved thrifting just as much as I do. I was driven to create a movement." We got into that and so much more, visit www.thrifttherapypod.com for show notes on the episode and to learn more about Key and Blacks Who Thrift.
