Customer Reviews
Phone service abroad
I have just started listening to this podcast and have gained a few nuggets. I would really like to know how you handle phone service in other countries. I don’t know that I want to spend an extra $10 per day plus possible roaming charges. Please educate me on how you deal with phones!
Vague and surface level
I was really anticipating a bit more depth in this travel podcast. How does a host recommend visiting a women’s film fest in Kyoto, state they don’t know when the film festival happens each year, and then recommend travelers go to the festival if they’re in Kyoto during that time. Well… that made zero sense and was pointless.
Also, jumping from one country to the next with no real data or depth, just stating one thing that is interesting to do there and moving on. Kinda feels like sideways cliffs notes. I’m hoping I can keep looking around and find a travel podcast that makes more sense for me. I’m sure this may be a good podcast for some others.
Solo Travel Women Podcast
Sara is an amazing mentor and her podcasts highlight everything you need to know about solo travel! I would recommend her podcasts to anyone interested in traveling!
