Notes from Somewhere is a conversation-driven travel podcast about travel as lived experience – not destination guides or bucket lists, but the stories beneath the surface. Hosted by Eri, each episode explores a city, a country, or a season of life somewhere else, and the people and places that shape us. Through intimate storytelling (something Eri brings from her work in marketing), we talk culture shock, identity, and personal growth – and the lessons that stay long after you’ve left. If you love travel stories, reflective conversations, and podcasts about culture, this one’s for you.
