  • Makes me want to visit!

    I love this podcast! Frank has a really lovely way of presenting and the way that the audio has been linked with the words is amazing. I’ve always been curious about Iceland and this episode has made it my next destination. Going next summer and all the places featured are at the top of my list! I also never thought Geneva was such a multicultural place. Keen to go and explore the city. Thanks for taking me off the beaten track <3

  • A visceral experience.

    Frank does a great job of making you feel like you’re with him on the journey, visiting places you’d never go to, or people you’d never cross paths with. A lovely audio journey.

  • The Preshaah

    Incredible sound scape and voyage across Egypt w Frank weaving us through his travels in fine style.

    Its a very visual listen with casual description of the sights and sensations he experiences, presenting cultured insight into the history of the area and Frank’s fine taste for wooden artworks.
