Explorations All Over
Welcome to Explorations All Over, a travel podcast that goes beyond itineraries to explore how a place feels—and why it stays with us long after we’ve returned home.
In Season 1, I shared some of my most memorable adventures—from Africa to Japan to the Caribbean—talking about cruising, flying, hotels, and the logistics of travel along the way.
In Season 2, I’m changing things up.
Rather than chronological recaps of where we went and what we did each day, this season is more sensory and reflective. I want to explore how a place felt, why it mattered to me, and how it shifted my perspective on the world.
There are plenty of travel podcasts that focus on daily schedules and checklists. Instead, I want you to feel like you’re right there with me—seeing what I saw, tasting what I tried, smelling the air, and listening to the world around us.
Season 2 is about immersion. It’s about escape. It’s about the excitement—and sometimes the surprises—of traveling the world.
I’ll still take you to incredible destinations and share helpful tips and suggestions so you can learn from our experiences, both the successful ones and the moments that didn’t go quite as planned.
I hope these episodes give you a sense of connection, curiosity, and wanderlust—and that you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed creating them.

After Wanderlust — A Reflection on Uganda
This episode is only available to subscribers.

Exclusive access to premium content!After the Uganda episode went live, I found myself going back and rereading a recent travel magazine feature about mountain gorilla trekking. It described the journey beautifully — the hike, the anticipation, the careful approach into the forest.
But it also made me realize something.
I had told the story of what happened.
I hadn’t really talked about what it felt like to stand there.
This short, more personal follow-up isn’t about the itinerary or the trek itself. It’s about the moment inside the forest — the quiet, the awareness of being tolerated in another world, and why an hour with the gorillas ended up defining the entire trip.
I placed this episode in the subscriber feed because it felt less like a travel story and more like a conversation I would have after the microphones were turned off.
If you listened to the Uganda episode and sensed there was something deeper behind it, this is that reflection.
