Customer Reviews
Great pod
Love the content and love the relaxed and warm vibes from Chase. Keep up the great work mate
About Abroad speaks straight to my gypsy soul
I love love love this podcast. Chase is such a great host and his ability to have genuine, interesting conversations with his guests feels like your amongst friends. It’s so cool to hear about all the different places in the world and the stories behind why people end up in where they do. As a fellow globetrotter it’s made me feel part of a community and has also opened my mind to countless more adventures to be had in the different corners of the world. Thank you Chase !
Weekly hit of globetrotting in my ears
A truely double edged sword podcast. Weekly goodness about amazing places to live and work from and then weekly adding places to my list of where I want to live and work from (and driving my husband crazy telling him where I want to live next 😬)
