I am constantly trying to find the next thing that will scratch my travel itch. Thanks to Ash’s previous series, I have now found this and have hours of living vicariously through this pod. Love it

… and not in a romantic way😏 Great interview, especially the honest answers about life as an adventurer/ storyteller. Its good to hear that you all struggle now and then. If not with the ideas that come up at once, then, realistically, with the time/ money balance. Personally I think that makes the work even more honorable and true. Will stay a fan🌟

I just discovered this podcast thru Ash Bhardwaj’s IG post. Thank you. Reminded me of my own travels to distant places over the years, memories that are even more valuable today with covid restrictions. The friendly voices of Pip, Ash, and guest, Levison, brightened up my Sunday morning! Looking forward to more.
