Island Travel Podcast
Islands are ideal for travel and in this podcast travelers share stories and tips from their travels to exotic islands across the world. Over time I found myself gravitating towards islands for a variety of reasons that we explore in these podcast episodes. Episodes will be 15-20 minutes, come out weekly, and feature one guest speaking about an island, or group of islands, they visited and will share their "on the ground" knowledge. I worked in the travel industry for several years and have traveled to over 70 countries. I am the author of the book "Internet Revolution: A Generational Story" available on Amazon.
