Ep-269

Sarah Tiedemann, author of Traveling with Baggage: A Guide for the Hesitant Hiker, has dealt with anxiety her whole life.

She didn’t let it stop her from moving to Hawaii to go to college, though! Or the subsequent travel bug.

Today Sarah joins me to chat about her experience traveling with anxiety, some of the mechanisms she uses to cope, and how you can help if you’re traveling with someone who has anxiety.

It’s not easy to travel with anxiety, but what you’ll find on the other end might just be worth the fight.

Do you get anxious when you travel? Let me know @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!

It’s Only the Himalayas with S. Bedford

ep-251

S. Bedford said she was going to do something that all travelers say at one point or another.

I’m going to write a book about this trip

Original right?

Well, she ACTUALLY followed through and did it.

And the result is fantastic.

There’s not just one, or two, or even three travel mishaps in this one. It’s an ENTIRE collection of travel mishaps!

You can bet I was excited about that!

We chat about some of those misadventures today, as well as the process of publishing her book, and what adventures are next for her now that she’s got her book out the door.

What was your favorite misadventure? Let us know @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!

The Science of Adventure with Jon Levy

ep-250

Click here to download this episode.

Nothing good happens after 2 am – except the most epic experiences of your life!

Jon Levy explains how, by using science (yes, SCIENCE!) he went from being a nerd – before nerds were cool – to spending Thanksgiving at Kiefer Sutherland’s house, hosting dinner parties for some of the world’s most interesting people, and narrowly escaping death while running with the bulls.

His new book, The 2 AM Principle: Discover the Science of Adventure changed my mindset about adventure after about 10 minutes of reading! It’s a must-read for those of us in love with travel and adventure!

What was your most recent adventure? Let me know @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!
