    S3 E1 Today's Explorers - Sabine and Sebastiaan of Puffin on Tour

    Sabine and Sebastiaan, both from The Netherlands, share their story and perspective of experiencing life-changing adventure. Hear a snapshot of their life, what inspires them to explore more, how they engages with others, and why they believes it is important to embrace global cultures. Sabine and Sebastiaan, known as Puffin on Tour, are a Dutch couple who left their regular jobs in law and shipping for a life of adventure and travel, seeking more freedom and connection to nature. Their journey began with local camping trips and evolved into extended road trips across Europe, including memorable travels through Scandinavia, the UK, and Italy. Influenced by other travelers and motivated by curiosity, they embarked on a honeymoon overland trip through Morocco, intending to explore global cultures and possibly find a quieter place to live outside the crowded Netherlands. Key skills they bring to their travels include Sebastiaan’s mechanical experience from maritime work and car ownership, and Sabine’s DIY projects and wildlife tracking. Essential items for their journey include a water filtration system, phone for community connections, binoculars, wildlife books, and an off-grid wash bag. Their vehicle—a modified Land Rover Defender called “Puffin”—is specially equipped with a rooftop tent and practical storage systems for extended travel comfort. Throughout their adventures, Sabine and Sebastiaan emphasize the importance of curiosity, embracing diverse cultures, and open-minded engagement with locals, despite occasional challenges like language barriers and adjusting to cultural norms. Their advice to others is to start with small adventures, use available resources, and be open to unexpected, meaningful moments that arise from connecting with people around the world.

    S3 E4 Today's Explorers - Eric and Brittany of Hourless Life

    Eric, Brittany, and Caspian, all from the United States, share their story and perspective of experiencing life-changing adventure. Hear a snapshot of their life, what inspires them to explore more, how they engage with others, and why they believes it is important to embrace global cultures. Eric, Brittany, and their son Caspian are a full-time overlanding family traveling the world in their Jeep Gladiator, which doubles as their home and carries their Alu-Cab Canopy Camper living space. Eric, originally from Seattle and a retired U.S. Coast Guard veteran, brings experience in self-defense, medical care, and vehicle recovery, while Brittany, born in Ontario and raised in Texas, handles the intensive logistics and organization that long-term international travel demands. Caspian, who has been a traveler since birth, has already slept in all of the Lower 48 U.S. states and visited dozens of national parks by the age of five. Their journey grew from a conventional life running a small business and pursuing a comfortable home into a 10–15 year plan to drive around the world, after years of RV travel evolved into international overlanding. Guided by their family mission statement—“Love. Explore. Study. Share.”—they focus on meeting people, challenging media-driven stereotypes, and helping their son understand cultures firsthand so he can advocate for friends across the globe. They emphasize flexibility, patience, humor, and the belief that stuff is a poor substitute for experience, encouraging others not to wait for perfect gear or circumstances but to “explore now, with what you have.” Discover more of their adventures and updates on Instagram.

    S3 E10 Today's Explorers - Edwin and Magda of Curious Roo

    Edwin and Magda are the couple behind Curious Roo Coffee Roasters, a project documenting their journey driving a Mercedes Sprinter van from London to Australia with their three children, all in pursuit of a world record: delivering a single bag of coffee, roasted the morning they left, all the way to Australia. Leaving behind 14 years running their own coffee business, they set out to prove that raising curious, adaptable kids might be one of the best things a family can do together. Their current adventure takes them overland through Europe and a rare detour through Chechnya into Russia, across Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan, through China with a guide in tow, and down into Southeast Asia, with a final stretch through Indonesia before an 87-hour ferry crossing and the last leg into Australia. Along the way, they share the realities of homeschooling on the move, saying goodbye and hello to their beloved van Daisy as she's trucked between countries, and the small, unscripted acts of kindness — a stranger's 20-minute detour, a shared cup of coffee — that keep reminding them the world is kinder than the headlines suggest. Enjoy! And always explore more!
