Episode 24 - 2018 year in review.

In this episode I recall some highlight from my big 4 trips I took in 2018. 3 of with were with Jessica Dixon and one with Brian Stowell. IN 2018 I went to 13 different countries and 4 of those were new. Ive been trying to complete the Century travelers list of countries and territories. Needless to say thats going slow.i also keep calling them the century travelers club when its actually the Travelers Century Club. So i Talk about traveling by train from Bangkok to Cambodia. I talk about the nice people at The Local Guesthouse and brew pub in Siem Reap. Theres a quick little stories of visiting one of the driest places on earth, Micro countries (Monaco, San Marino, Vatican City), and our time at the Munduk Molding Plantation. I Love Phants Lodge is an outstanding place to interact with elephants who are being rehabilitated for the wild. I also talk about traveling alone. One thing I don’t discuss this episode that I will link are some of my favorite travel Items.
