Season 1 · Episode 20

Tuesday, August 24, 2021 • Duration 49:56

Few people can claim to have been in the travel blogging world as long as Gary Arndt. Today we are lucky enough to be joined by Gary to hear all about his amazing adventures, unlikely career path, and what has kept him excited and engaged with his work for the last three decades. It is hard to know where to start with someone who has done so much and gone to so many places! Gary gives us a couple of select glimpses of some of the amazing sights he has seen and cultures he has connected with. He also gets into using photography as a way to document his travels, and why he will always put traveling ahead of taking photos. Our guest shares some of his personal opinions on accommodation options, different types of sharks, and what is most important when setting out on a journey. For Gary, travel has always been about the unique moments that you get to live in, rather than where you sleep, and what you pack in your bag. We think this is a great reminder about the essence of life on the road, and hearing it from someone so steeped in the culture of traveling really adds resonance to the idea. Join us today to hear all he has to say!
