A Portrait of a Nomad in Quarantine
This week, in our last ever episode, we discuss how the pandemic has impacted the future of relationships and our predictions for what dating as a nomad will look like once borders start opening. We’ve shared so many embarrassing stories and spoken with so many wonderful, open and insightful people over these two seasons. It’s been a pleasure sharing their stories here, but we feel like we’ve done what we set out to do - create a little time capsule of nomad pandemic dating - and we’re going to quit while we’re ahead! Thank you so much for coming along with us on this journey. Big hugs!

Nomads' Land
This week we speak with Elizabeth Miner, a nomad and self-defence teacher, about how to stay safe while on dates and while on the road. We also discuss how structural biases against women, trans people, non-binary folk, and people on the LGBTQ system create more dangers for those groups and how we can work together to combat those issues.

For whom the wedding bell tolls
In this episode, we talk to long term nomads, writers and performers Jon and Viv who got engaged at the Edinburgh Fringe and had planned to have a super showboaty wedding during 2020, but ended up cancelling because, well, Covid. We also chat to nomad Miranda, who took the opposite approach and decided to seize the day and tie the knot during lockdown.
Here’s the video of Jon’s proposal to Viv: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuYjR6092YI
