We’re back today with part 2 of our interview with the founder of Bluffworks, Stefan Loble.
In this portion of the interview, we focus on travel.
Stefan’s favorite place to travel (you might be surprised if I hadn’t mentioned it on last week’s podcast…), his acts of rebellion, traveling like the locals, and of course travel mishaps.
A lot of travel mishaps.
We also discuss how he managed to fly first class, on an economy ticket, why you should style your travels around the things you already love to do, and my favorite part…

Animals don’t run towards things. They run away from something.
Stefan Loble feels an affinity for this idea. For years he’d been having ideas for businesses he could start, but he never followed through on any of them.
Until he got really sick of washing his pants.
Running away from laundry led him to his current full-time job as the founder of Bluffworks.
Bluffworks creates awesome travel/work pants that don’t wrinkle and can go days without care.
Seriously.
Stefan joins me today to talk about finally following through on his ideas and becoming an entrepreneur, why it’s the hardest thing he’s ever done (with stories for comparison), and how he managed to balance his new business with his 9-5 job as a software programmer.
