I love speaking with people who've made travel a central part of their life.

The Tuk Tuk Club run ten-day trips through the largely undiscovered and beautiful highlands of northern Thailand.

Twenty-five years of travel with Els De Smet

May 20 2022 37 mins  
Based in Belgium where she works as a counsellor for refugees, Els has been regularly taking to the road for the last 25 years. She travels in a very simple style, carrying just one small bag, using public buses, and often staying with the local people she meets on the way. It’s fascinating to me how she travels with absolutely no fear such an open heart. This is the final conver

Mantha and Dan, seeking a gap year before starting university, set off from England in their Fiat 500 with the aim of exploring Europe.

Sophia Bartolini's got a very unusual life for a 16-year-old - she travels the world with her mum and sister, teaching yoga and mindfulness along the way.  In this inspiring conversation we talk about how travel is its own education, how plans changing are never something worth worrying about, and how all you need to travel with your family is a bit of compromise and understan
