Flying to IRAQ! (Kurdistan)

Iraq is a country we never thought we'd visit, but here we are! Today we flew from Beirut, Lebanon to Erbil, Iraq which is in the Kurdistan region of the country. We visited a fancy airport lounge along the way, and we can't wait to share the rest of this series! :) // Travel vlog 611 | Erbil, Iraq (Kurdistan) | Country #89/100 | Filmed March 2019 ✈️ @DailyDrop is our FREE travel newsletter!

We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this YouTube channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
