  • Why we came back to live in Vancouver and my thoughts on other places to live in Canada

    2 JUL 2024 · Hello, and welcome to this latest solo episode. I thought I would check in about returning to Vancouver to live (for the time being) and the reasons behind it. I briefly discuss our other options in Canada, our thoughts on them from last year's road trip, and why we ultimately didn't move anywhere new.  The second half of the episode includes my thoughts on areas within Vancouver worth exploring and possible options for living if you move here. Just remember to bring your cash; this is a very expensive country to live in and travel in, so be ready! Thanks for tuning in, and be inspired!

    Episode 148 - Travelling w/ Will Hatton (The Broke Backpacker) - A $3K Budget For 2 Years In India, A Serial Entrepreneur + Snapchat Tours

    24 JUN 2024 · Hello, and welcome to episode 148 with Will Hatton, more commonly known as the Broke Backpacker. This was such a super fun episode to record. There were so many laughs, quality anecdotes, and serious tips for budding travellers or entrepreneurs.  Will has set up around 30 different businesses in his time, with some successes and failures along the way. He lays out all the lessons learned from those experiences. He talks us through how he created a tour in Pakistan on Snapchat, and in 24 hours, it sold out and how this helped him develop the Broke Backpacker brand. Towards the end of the episode, there is talk about his new business venture in Bali with Tribal Hostel.  Will has travelled extensively over the last fifteen years and talks about his travels in India in the early days before social media. He talks about sending updates to his thirty-person strong email list about his travels. He survived on $3000 for two years in India and talked us through his techniques for this sensational statistic. We talk about Pakistan, Iran and South America for more travel wanderlust. We both come from fairly similar backgrounds in England, growing up on council estates and thinking of joining the armed forces. We ponder how different our lives could have been if we had both followed through with those plans at the time.  There is so much packed into this hour for all kinds of travellers here. Whether you are a backpacker, digital nomad, entrepreneur or adventurer, we cover all bases. I had a super fun, engaging chat with Will, and it was a pleasure to talk to him for an hour.  Enjoy.

    17 JUN 2024 · Hello and welcome to this latest solo episode, where I combine my week in Portland with some stories from my time at Euro 2016 in France in honour of the current Euro 2024 tournament in Germany. The first half covers my first-ever event at TravelCon with an excellent summary of my fabulous time meeting great people, listening to inspiring creators, attending fantastic events and seeing some fellow podcasters. The bulk of the first half is my favourite things to do in Portland, such as activities, coffee and food, with some extra tips chucked in, too. The second half is more about sports travel and my time in Paris, France, with my friends for Euro 2016, with some funny anecdotes to go with my passionate rant about sports travel. Mostly drunken exploits of running up dry mud slopes, falling asleep on the toilet, avoiding a warzone in Marseille and being a local in Paris.  Thanks for tuning in, and be inspired!

    Episode 146 - Travelling With Orest Zub - visiting Ukraine, travelling with tennis + NomadMania

    27 MAY 2024 · Hello, and welcome to number 146. This week, I had the pleasure of interviewing Orest Zub in Vancouver. Orest is based in Lviv, Ukraine, and has travelled to 130 UN countries to date. We sat down for just over an hour discussing his homeland of Ukraine, how the war has changed everything for everyone, how it has changed him, the tourism industry in Ukraine, people's day-to-day lives and his role in the war. Since the war, he has changed as a traveller and how he wants to see the world. Nowadays, Orest travels to promote Ukraine and see other parts of the world suffering from war or persecution. He actively reports on situations worldwide, like his home country, on his social media, YouTube, and blogging websites. We also discuss how he uses tennis when travelling the world and meets locals to share a passion they both love and get to know them and their country. Orest is a partner within NomadMania, and he explains his role there, how this organization can help you as a traveller, and the future path for the organization. Thank you to Orest for visiting me in Vancouver and for coming on the show! Enjoy. Be inspired!

  • Travel Decoded With James Hammond - Nomadic Diaries

    20 MAY 2024 · I was recently a guest on Doreen's podcast Nomadic Diaries and had a great time; check it out! Join us for an inspiring conversation with globetrotter James Hammond, as Doreen delves into his transformation from a classic backpacker to an advocate for slow travel and cultural immersion covering work visas and digital visas.   James is a podcast producer, writer and travel expert.  Doreen, the host,  admits that she was extraordinarily chatty in this episode....sorry James! In this episode, you'll discover: 👣 James's evolution from his first hedonistic journey to embracing a purpose-driven path as a digital nomad, seeking to challenge misconceptions and truly connect with diverse cultures. 🌍 Insights into navigating the world with work permits, the digital nomad lifestyle, and how pursuing work-visa opportunities in countries like New Zealand, Canada, and Japan can shape your travel experiences. 🤝 The imperative role of cultural mentorship, empathy, and the pursuit of personal growth alongside geographic exploration. 🔑 Three Key Takeaways for Nomads and Aspiring Travelers: 1. Slow and steady wins the race - Embrace slow travel to forge more meaningful connections and immerse yourself fully in each culture. 2. Home is where the heart is - Recognize the importance of a home base and unravelling emotional baggage for a sustainable nomadic lifestyle. 3. Personal growth precedes travel triumphs - Travel is an incredible tool for expansion, but it's essential to address personal issues for transformative experiences. Don't miss this deep dive into the nomadic lifestyle that transcends the allure of bucket-list ticks and embraces the richness of global citizenship. Favorite Quote from this episode: "Travel is not about merely seeing new places, but about challenging misconceptions, connecting deeply with local cultures, and realizing that empathy, understanding, and less fear can transform the way we interact with the world."  The outstanding quote of the day.

    13 MAY 2024 · Hello, and welcome to number 145. This week, I had the pleasure of interviewing Scott Gurian, a journalist, adventure traveller, podcaster, and reporter. Scott joined me to discuss his adventures on the Mongol Rally, visiting Chornobyl, witnessing an Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru, and more. I begin the episode by asking how Scott got interested in travel and where his early journey took him. One of the stories was about Mexico but not Cancun for Spring Break. We also talk about Scott's podcast, Far From Home, which is a travel podcast that immerses the listener in the travel experience. I have a clip from Scott's Ayahuasca Retreat embedded in the episode.

  • How Australia Changed My Life

    7 MAY 2024 · Hello, and welcome to my next solo episode. This one is a little story about how Australia changed my life in 2010; going on to my year-long work permit in 2013/14 and my two visits since then. Australia was the gateway to me experiencing a completely new country outside of Europe and also presented an opportunity to earn some decent money to travel more of the world. I talk about this and more in this episode, and I always long to be back there every week.  Enjoy. Be inspired!

  • Episode 144 - Travelling With Judith Keys - My Best Friend In France Podcast

    29 APR 2024 · Hello, and welcome to number 144. This week, I am joined by Judith Keys from the My Best Friend In France Podcast, which focuses on English-speaking people migrating to France and offers a community and advice for this type of move. Judith is originally from Northern Ireland and moved to France ten years ago. She lives in Providence, in the south of France, and yes, I had to ask her, is it the quintessential French life that we all imagine she is living in? Tune in to find out the answer! We delve into how important learning French is to settling in as a permanent resident, how vital the French take workers' rights and lunch breaks, areas of France to visit and some top tips for getting started in France. Judith loves France and is fully fluent in French, so she has a great grasp of life there from an outside view.  Judith's podcast below is for English speakers looking to move to France or are already there and need familiar voices to speak about their concerns, advice on how to get started and a community of like-minded people. Judith also has a subscription portion to the podcast where she co-hosts with a teacher, and they converse in French and offer games/tasks to help you improve at speaking French. Lastly, Judith has a cooking podcast, too, if you are a foodie! Let's get stuck into the episode! Enjoy. Be inspired!
