Those Who Wander

This is a collection of conversations I had with travelers and locals back in 2016 and 2017. The goal was to capture the interesting lives and thought provoking discussions that manifest when two souls intersect in a foreign place. I never got around to editing these, but the recent death of a dear friend and one of my interviewees was the catalyst for putting them out there as is: messy and imperfect. I hope my guests enjoy looking back on who they were at this time in their lives. David Simmons, I dedicate this series to your memory and your love of travel. Rest in peace my brother.

    E13 OG Podcast Intro- From the cutting room floor

    This was supposed to be the intro for every podcast episode... I can't stand it now but worked too hard on it at the time to not at least share it. We all deserve a good laugh. :)

    E12 Tom Cornish

    I interviewed Tom because it was immediately clear that he was a brother in arms when it came to travel styles and desires. Tom is a big Aussie who is actually now my boss and colleague on various tuktuk and travel related ventures. Tom was one of the cofounders of tuktukrental.com and spent a lot of time working for a social venture in the slums of India. He has a fascinating perspective on life and travel and I was excited to pick his brain on these topics and learn about his experience starting a business in Sri Lanka.  Notes: Why are you in Sri Lanka? Creating documentary in India about traveling environmentally responsibly, riding bikes and had an accident that caused injury to film-making partner, rented 16-year-old Tuk Tuk, and fell in love with Tuk Tuks. Visited Sri Lanka after India and thought it was a better place to start a business. Importance of social business Tuk Tuk mafia Struggles setting up a foreign business in Sri Lanka Language barrier (biggest barrier), understanding the system, getting the right information Perception around Tuk Tuks being a vehicle for the lower class 52:45 Tom’s experience in the slums of India 1:07 India has magic 1:11 Eco-friendly traveling Using reusable water bottles, changing culture - plastic, eating meat 1:17 Specific goal in India Zero carbon, sustainable tourist, opportunities to make change 1:19 Eco-friendly traveling tips Don’t go to the big hotel chains, large restaurant chains; transport: bus, train, boat instead of planes; support locals; consider your impact on local economy: drugs, alcohol 1:23 Vegetarianism Eats on basis of carbon emissions, not wasting food Mentioned The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen Covey Pollinate Energy - social business Tom worked for in India TED Talk - The Way We Think About Charity is Dead Wrong specific to nonprofit sector, overhead ratio Vipassana Meditation www.tuktukrental.com Instagram @tuktukrental FB Tuk Tuk Rental

    E11 Tinnaphop Mana

    I interviewed Mana because, oh Mana I love this guy! He offered an interesting cultural perspective on travel based on his background and also infused his love of food and cooking into the mix. We spoke on a beach in Sri Lanka where we dove deep into his interesting angle on traveling the world.

    E10 Lanka Nanda- Sri Lankan Monk

    I technically didn't interview Lanka... but it kind of went that direction since I love to answer questions. While traveling Sri Lanka in a tuktuk, I stopped at a beautiful monastery outside of Ella. Lanka had joined several months earlier and spoke amazing English. He took it upon himself to share his knowledge of this branch of Buddhism with visitors to the temple. This is what he shared. Update: I revisited the monastery in 2019 and, unfortunately, Lanka was no longer there.

    E9 April Mislan

    I interviewed April because we clicked immediately when we met at a hostel in Dambulla, Sri Lanka. Her personality is contagious and I was excited to learn that she had been living and working in Asia for several years. She was solo traveling in Sri Lanka and shared with me many stories and experiences from along the way. Oddly enough, she encountered one of my good friends from home while in a hostel in Romania. She proved, once again, just how small and wonderful this world is.

    E8 Alex Gillett

    I interviewed Alex because the man's a legend. I made friends with a group of Brits while traveling in Rajasthan, and one night when we were all at dinner, I got to listen to some of Alex's entertaining and hilarious exploits. Surprisingly, we didn't even get into many of them on this podcast and instead shared some surprisingly deep conversations about the guilt that comes with traveling in places like India. He also is the one who inspired me to go travel Vietnam by motorcycle, which I finally did at the beginning of 2020!

    E7 Tara and David

    I interviewed Tara and David because of their amazing personalities and their unique perspective on traveling together as a couple. They had been to some places I was still dying to go in India, and their honest accounts of their experiences were priceless. I appreciated their openness to share their experiences in such an open and vulnerable way. Cheers mates!

    E6 Tina Kukreja

    I chose to interview Tina during a stay at her lovely hotel in Jaipur. It was interesting to learn about her experience as a female entrepreneur in such a male dominated society as India. She got her start with a catering business and still had the cooking skills to show why it was so successful. I would know because she treated me to an astounding homemade lamb curry.
