Travel changes lives. It changed ours and continues to change our outlook, every day. Join 3D Travelcast as we dive deep into why we travel to celebrate life, to rejoice, to bond, to build, to heal.

3D TravelCast is created and hosted by 3 members of the 3D Travel Team, Carol Beth Scott, Wendy Armstrong and Sandy Barnes. As people, we are a big chaotic mess of fun, having tried the food, the festivals, the good and the bad from top to bottom all over the US and all over the world.

As travel advisors, Wendy and Sandy are advocates. As an agency owner, Carol Beth Scott strives to serve her team and the people they are privileged to care for.

As an agency, we’re an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner, U-Preferred for Universal, and preferred partners for many reputable brands. We’re good at this.

As podcasters, we’re brand new at this. We laugh a lot, cry sometimes and always look for the good in the experiences, people and cultures. Won’t you join us on our journey?
