  • 111: Loving Iceland with Auður from I Heart Reykjavik

    08/10/2014 Duração: 30min

    "I don't think of myself as a traveler. I'm more of a curious person and I just have to go places to find my answers." Auður Olafsdottir runs the travel blog and tour company I Heart Reykjavik where she blogs about her home city and her amazing country waiting for her in her own backyard. Iceland, to me, is this lunar-like landscape with fjords, geysers, hot springs and mountains. I'm hoping today's guest can take us there and explain her love for Iceland, shine a light on a few lesser known areas, and inspire you to look at Iceland for your next trip.

  • 110: A New Place Every 91 Days with Mike and Juergen

    07/10/2014 Duração: 40min

    Juergen and Mike are self-proclaimed born-wanderers and life-long learners of new cultures, on the road to explore as much of the world as they can. How they're going about doing this is smart, and a route that I would recommend anyone who writes or blogs about their travels considers as a model for earning money on the road. Every 3 months, Juergen and mike travel to a new destination, immerse themselves in the culture, and write about their experience at For 91 Days. When they're done, they compile all of their articles and information into a book, which they sell as a part of their series of travel guides called For 91 Days: Sri Lanka, or For 91 Days: Busan, For 91 Days: Oviedo, and so on. And we'll explore why 3 months, how the idea is working, where it all started, and where they're headed next.

    06/10/2014 Duração: 34min

    "I don't think sitting in a car for an hour, just to get yelled at by same guy... Just to do something that you don't enjoy. To have all that stress for no reason only to get back in the car, to go back home to try to alleviate the stress for the day? I just don't think that's what life should be about." Today’s guest has been to around 80 countries in in the past 5 years, having visited all 7 contintents and living in 12 different countries in 5 different continents. That’s awesome to be able to say, and I know he doesn’t take that for granted, which is exactly why he’s here today. When Marcello Arrambidé was 25, he needed to break away from dull nagging ache of routine and took an unusual direction, one that’s led him to a life of travel centered around a single skill that he’s cultivated over the years. That skill is day-trading on the stock market and helping others do the same through his website — The Wandering Trader.

  • 108: 5 Steps to Save Confidently for a Travel Life with Paula Pant

    03/10/2014 Duração: 40min

    "As a little kid, I shuttled back forth between Ohio and Kathmandu, Nepal. Which I realize might make me sound worldly, except for the fact that my worldview was so limited that I thought the whole world was no bigger than Ohio and Nepal."  In 2008, today’s guest quit her job and sold it all to backpack across the Middle east, Asia and Europe for two years. This set in motion the desire for a lifestyle that incorporated travel as a regular part of the no longer boring routine. In this episode, we explore in depth how Paula could afford to this, continues to travel today and how you can do the same. Paula Pant is the mind behind Afford Anything where she helps others master their money, buy back your life, ditch the cubicle and embark on an epic adventure. I had the fortune of meeting Paula in Las Vegas back in January, and thought her enthusiasm for what she believes, and how she lives her message, to be infectious. I’m excited to riff with her about her location independence, why she does what she does, and

    01/10/2014 Duração: 27min

    This is part 2 of my conversation with Ginger Kern. Listen to part 1. Today we’re exploring what I mean when I talk about becoming an Explorer, or taking the mindset of an explorer into everything you do. Ginger Kern has spent the last 4 years traveling the world and observing the effects of travel on happiness, or how travel can make us feel more at peace with ourselves. She manages the summits put on by The Higher Purpose Project and recently co-founded the MBADventures Pilot Experience - which involves escaping with likeminded people on life-changing adventures. More recently, she's begun speaking on what she calls The Traveler’s Mindset, which is both a way of life and a digital platform she’s launching. I’m so excited to get into what she means by this, and why it matters, and how it relates to imagination, adventure and all of the prevailing themes of this podcast. What We Cover: Being stuck in the dull nagging ache of routine is a choice. Getting unstuck is a choice. How connecting with the humanity in

  • 104: Get Inspired to Explore with Passion Passport’s Zach Glassman

    29/09/2014 Duração: 38min

    "That idea that there are walls around me never existed... There's a humanity that unites us all." - Zach Glassman Two years ago, Zach Glassman left his job in corporate finance to make travel a bigger priority in his life, and the experience he had was transformative. Rather than ever come back to play the role of the person he was before he left, just last year he founded Passion Passport, a community of storytellers, photographers, and explorers — coming together around a mutual passion for travel. Zach grew up following his father in Central America after his parents met in Guatemala, and so ongoing travel has been a normality in his life for as far back as it goes. Nowadays, the community he’s fostering is in line with you, and the listeners of this show, and I’m excited to sort of unite the tribes around a shared love of meaningful experience and exposure to the complexities of the world. What We Cover: How being born into a family that's open to new experiences helped shape Zach's principles about tra

  • 103: Trek the Annapurna Circuit with Kristin Addis

    26/09/2014 Duração: 24min

    After growing up in Southern California, Kristin Addis found herself an investment banker who couldn’t ignore the call to adventure. So in 2012, after a year-long recovery from a debilitating shoulder surgery helped her realize she wasn't satisfied with her career, she quit her job, got rid of her stuff, and chose experiences instead, hitting the road independently to explore without guide books and using just her wits. Today she writes about what she finds at her travel blog, Be My Travel Muse, covering her experiences on the road and helping others to do the same, in her series So You Want to Be a Travel Blogger. I’m excited to learn more about how someone can make the bold decision to quit a lucrative career for a much more challenging, albeit personally rewarding, lifestyle - and what solo-travel has meant for her. She even took on the Annapurna Circuit without a guide and in this episode, you'll hear she did it and how you can to. What We Cover: How shoulder surgery helped Kristin realize her priority w

    25/09/2014 Duração: 24min

    "I'm not going to spend my youth doing something I don't love. It seems really flip-flopped to me that we spend our youth working so that we can go travel when we're older when we might not make it that far in life, or have the ability to carry a bag anymore." - Kristin Addis After growing up in Southern California, Kristin Addis found herself in the role of an investment banker who couldn’t ignore her own inherent curiosity. In 2012, following a year-long recovery from a debilitating shoulder surgery that helped her realize she wasn't satisfied with her financial career, she quit her job, sold her stuff, and chose travel instead. On her own, she hit the road to explore the unknown with neither a plan nor a guide, just her wits. Today, she writes about what she's found at her travel blog, Be My Travel Muse, which covers her experiences in a life of travel and offers guidance and advice for others dreaming or striving to follow her unconventional path. In this session, you'll learn how someone can make the dif

    24/09/2014 Duração: 23min

    Today’s guest is someone I met in Portland while attending World Domination Summit in July 2014. He shared this high energy and enthusiasm story about a motorcycle ride through the frozen Siberian landscape to the Arctic Circle. Everything he had to say about the story and why he was doing it, why he was sitting on that bike in the freezing cold captivated me and so I’m bringing his story to your ears. His name is Chris Plough. After the death of his parents, Chris began a downward trajectory into aggressive and dangerous behavior that resulted in nearly killing himself in a motorcycle wreck. He was directionless. Then one day he heard a story about these people who would drive beat up vehicles from London to Ulaanbataar, Mongolia. Hungry for a quest, Chris signed up, met new friends and with them drove a beat up ambulance across Europe and Asia. It broke down just before they arrived. But through adventure, Chris found what he was looking for: Direction. Since then, he's been on the Rickshaw Run and the Ice

I’ve heard from so many people who have told me that because they were inspired by this show that they’ve actually booked that trip — their first big or independent adventure overseas, and I can’t tell you how honored and proud that makes me feel, knowing that this podcast can nudge people out the door and change their lives. I want this show, its message and guests, to inspire you so badly that you book that ticket, or make that change, in your life to make travel a bigger priority. This is your one chance to recognize that your desire to travel is an opportunity that will pass you by if you just keep putting it off.

    22/09/2014 Duração: 36min

    "I often find that some of the hardest moments that hit, and you think there's no way to recover from it... right after that are some of my best stories, best moments, best successes. So ride them through and try to find another way to work it out. I think that's the key to turning those events around." - Chris Plough Today's guest is someone I met in Portland while attending World Domination Summit in July 2014. He shared this high energy and enthusiasm story about a motorcycle ride through the frozen Siberian landscape to the Arctic Circle. Everything he had to say about the story and why he was doing it, why he was sitting on that bike in the freezing cold captivated me and so I'm bringing his story to your ears.

    17/09/2014 Duração: 39min

    Today’s guest bills himself as an entrepreneur and an explorer, and is definitely a man after my own heart. As such, Scott Dinsmore is the guy behind Live Your Legend, a revolution of people out to change the world by doing work they love. On there, Scott talks about finding the work that makes you come alive — as well as adventure and exploration of both the world, and the day-to-day. In other words, he’s out to help you solve the problem of feeling stuck in the dull nagging ache of routine. Back in May, on the cusp of a trip to Greece with his wife and friends, he wrote an article called Train Yourself for Everyday Adventure — and it was exactly in tune with this show, and my own personal beliefs about the effects of travel and their value to the individual and society. I also want to tap into Scott’s expertise to help anyone listening here, interested in or setting out to build a life of travel — about how to get started or identify that they’re on the right track.

You can see these stories on her blog and portfolio The Great Affair. Among other publications, her work has been featured in National Geographic's magazine. As an artist, Candace’s work has opened doors for her to experience the people in the places she’s been, and to take home with her the stories that define who she’s always becoming. Along with her regular travels, she also lived in India for nearly a full year and I’m excited to get into what that was like, as a traveler and as a woman on her own in a vastly different culture.

    15/09/2014 Duração: 23min

    "Travel gave me all the confidence... I guess I didn't have a lot of self-esteem. I grew a lot as a person just by undertaking challenges and being in difficult situations and just by realizing, 'I can probably figure things out.'" - Chris Guillebeau A single trip to Africa set in motion a course of events that would make an impact on the world. Certainly my world, and the world of many of my friends. Today’s guest has been to all 193 countries, while championing above all a life of unconventionality, and non-conformity. Chris Guillebeau is the author of one of the most recommended books on this show, The Art of Nonconformity, as well as the $100 Startup and his forthcoming book, The Happiness of Pursuit. He’s also the mind behind the Art of Nonconformity blog, Unconventional Guides, and The Travel Hacking Cartel — all of which help people pursue a life less ordinary, and far more adventurous than prescribed by society.

    This session's guest has been running independent tours for people of all ages through some of the colder regions of the world for over 20 years, including tours of Alaska and sailing trips to Antarctica - both of which really piqued my curiosity. Laurent Dick grew up in Switzerland and like so many of the Swiss, speaks four languages. And for the past 25 years, he’s lived in Alaska with his wife and son where started his tour company, Wild Alaska Travel. I’ve always been curious about the 49th State — and what’s waiting up there, so I’m curious to hear from Laurent about why he moved there and what it was about the place that he fell in love with. And then there’s Antarctica, a destination so many people dream to visit — yet seems so inaccessible and extreme. What We Cover: Laurent moved to Alaska after accepting an invitation to go mountaineering in British Columbia How spending two weeks alone in the wild traversing 2000 miles on a river through the Yukon Territory gave Laurent insight on what he wanted

In 2011, he left his career to explore a nomadic lifestyle with his then 9-year old son, believing that by ‘world schooling’ him, he can give his son the greatest opportunity, the chance to experience and learn about the amazing and complex world in which we live. Talon Windwalker shares these stories, struggles, and experiences on his blog, 1dad1kid.com. I’m thrilled to connect with Talon, and share his story about living without regrets, and why it’s so important to give young people the encouragement and opportunity to travel.
