Description
Travelling Through Conversation came to me whilst living in a backpackers’ hostel. Most nights I’d sit at the bar, drink a beer and meet strangers from around the world.
One conversation that stood out was with a chap called Zé from Brazil. He told me how he’d got a milk box carton tattooed on his arm – a drunken moment with friends led him to the idea. Now we’ve both agreed, when I visit Zé in South America, I’ll get the same tattoo on my arm.
It’s moments like these, which make me want to speak with people. Each episode is a conversation. Between myself and a stranger from a different country. The goal is to communicate with them all and to see what happens.

Travel, like an adventure, often begins with a plan for day one—but after that, who knows where the journey will lead? Traveling Through Conversation has followed a similar path. Now, twenty recordings in, I’m thrilled to unveil our official logo! It’s been beautifully brought to life by the talented Ludi, who also stars in the France episode. My favorite detail? The way Morocco and Spain lean in as if to share a kiss. What catches your eye? Do you have a favorite feature?
The Argentinian man in this episode went out one Sunday and ended up traveling across Europe. He's still at it. How?
I’ve been robbed a few times while travelling, but the second time it happened, I was actually happy. Why? I learned from my mistakes the first time around. June, what do you do when you get mugged?
Rome - a capital hotspot for people like us, and probably your next-door neighbour too. But what do you do when your neighbour's actually from Rome? You record a podcast together. Meet mine - his name’s Richard. And yes, you guessed it, this episode wasn't built in a day.
1I once had a girlfriend who left me for India, and since we’ve lost touch, I can’t ask her about South Asia. A few years later, I embark on my own adventure. Today, I’m joined by Aishwarya, who’s frequently Out of Office. We chat about the unpredictability of travel and dive into whether India is a safe place for women to live or visit. Without my ex’s perspective, I’m especially eager to hear from a true native instead!
