Episode 8: Corsica - Travel Author Luke Edwards

British traveler Luke Edwards is author of "Travel Escapades: Adventures and Upsets Around the World" shares some stories from one of his favorite islands, Corsica.

Birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte, Corsica has some interesting history, including numerous pirate attacks and a very distinct local culture with strong French and Italian influences. 

But for Luke, what makes the places most magical are the isolated beaches scattered around the edges and the mountainous hikes running through the middle of Corsica.

This is a great episode for people planning a first trip to Corsica, or if you want to relive some of that feeling you had when visiting, or you just want to daydream about a Mediterranean island with ideal climate.
