I rarely take the time to review podcasts (I should do that more) but I just had to say this one is amazing. It’s off beat, efficient, and has provided so much info for our upcoming trip that would have taken me way longer to learn otherwise! Thank you so much!
For those who like to geek out on travel planning this podcast is excellent for its useful and unique tips and perspective.
At first I thought Johnny was a kind of oddly wooden. Then I thought he might be AI. But I eventually found this podcast to be really helpful, candid, and actually funny.
I'm listening to episodes on places I'm not even planning to visit because they are really entertaining. Check out the episode on Nara--it's like a comedy/horror movie with deer.
Thanks Johnny--whoever you are.
Although Jonny sounds a bit wooden I love his info, dedication and thoroughness! He really is committed to helping everyone Travel Smart! Keep it up Jonny!
I liked the info and that there are no commercials. As an American, his pronunciation of French words was very different than what I’m used to.
