After traveling on business for 30 years, what was I going to do after I sold my company in 2013? Answer: Travel more, but to the off-the-beaten-track and obscure places on planet Earth. After visiting almost 100 countries and living in 5 countries, I officially became a Travel Addict. Today, I am contracted by various Cruise Lines to perform enrichment and educational lectures to passengers on various journeys around the World. A podcast or two will be published from time to time when I am back in my office and of course it will be about travel. Oh, almost forgot. I write travel books - factual and quirky. Check me out at malcolmjteasdale.com.All my guests have an inspiring story to tell. Tune in and be amazed. "Of all the books in the world, the best stories are found between the pages of a passport"

A Brit living in Australia, Christine Smith, also known as The Food Granny, travels with a different kind of passport, one that gets her invited into kitchens rather than just across borders. From sitting in village kitchens learning generational recipes, to discovering unexpected delicacies in places most travellers overlook, her journeys are driven by curiosity and connection rather than checklists. Food has taken her off the beaten track and into experiences that most tourists simply do not see. Check out her wesite:https://www.thefoodgranny.com.au/http://www.malcolmteasdale.com
Briana Gervat is a historian, photographer, and an author who recently published her memoir, There Will Come Soft Rains: A Journey Along the Western Front.She is the first woman to walk the "Western Front Way" solo.In 2022, just as the world began to open after the isolation of a global pandemic, Briana Gervat set out to walk the length of the Western Front. Beginning at the border that France shares with Switzerland she went into the wild in search of hope and in search of peace. For 500 miles, she climbed over the mountains of the Vosges, through the battle-scarred landscapes of Verdun, the Marne, and the Somme, all the way to the North Sea in Belgium. It was not only a journey of 36 days, but a journey through a period of history that we have learned nothing from, only how not to repeat it. It is the story about what it means to walk through the remnants of history to feel its reverberations, to listen to its echoes, and with hope, to learn something along the way.he way you tell your story online can make all the difference.Very commendable and throught-provoking.Check out her website:https://www.theperegrinepilgrim.com/http://www.malcolmteasdale.com
