Dette er en kort special episode, hvor jeg anbefaler en anden rejsepodcast,. Den hedder Zero To Travel og ud over, at jeg selv har været gæst et par gange, så er det en fantastisk podcast, som jeg har lyttet til siden dengang, jeg planlagte min rejse i 2015. Hvis du kan lide Radiovagabond, vil du elske Zero To Travel, præsenteret af min (nu) gode ven, Jason Moore.

Join me in this episode of The Radio Vagabond as I delve into the fascinating history of Elk Horn, Iowa, a small Midwestern town with a rich Danish heritage. Hear the story of Egon Simonsen, the last Danish immigrant in Elk Horn, and discover the serendipitous connection I found between my fictional tale and real history.  

We'll be back at the iconic Danish Windmill, meet its dedicated manager Lisa Steen Riggs, and explore the efforts to preserve Danish culture through the Museum of Danish America and Bedstemors Hus.  

This journey uncovers the vibrant Danish American community in Elk Horn and their commitment to preserving their roots. Don't miss this captivating exploration of Danish heritage in the heartland of America. 

In this episode of The Radio Vagabond, I visit Sri Lanka and walk across rice fields down to a river where a “catamaran canoe” took me across, I then arrived at a small house with a grass roof.

A few days ago, I published an episode about Elk Horn, and in that one I told a story about some Danish immigrants. Here I also had a song created by AI about their story. I played small bits of it in the episode, but a few of you have written to me, asking to hear the entire song. Well, of course. While I’m working on the next episode from Elk Horn, here it is…
If you haven’t heard the episode from Elk Horn yet, do that now. Not only am I telling the story about Christian and Mary and how they ended up here in Elk Horn, but I also meet the locals and visit their biggest attraction: an old Danish Windmill that was taken apart and sent to this small Midwestern town. It’s a fascinating story. 
In the next one, I will explore this Danish-American settlement more. 
My name is Palle Bo, and I gotta keep moving. See you.
