After trying on a handful of different careers and lives, Marysia Maciocha found the only way to encompass all of these interests was through travel - and the many roles it lets us play. This support was all she needed to fall in love with travel, which she writes about on her blog, My Travel Affairs.
Since then, she’s made a life of travel her own and one I’m excited to explore, while also learning a thing or two about her home country of Poland, from which a number of my relatives came to America generations ago. And yet I’ve still never been.
In this episode, Marysia explains how she made the decision to travel, how she affords it and why she considers herself the luckiest person, what she's found and how these discoveries about herself have influenced her future.

"I was afraid of getting stuck so I made a kind-of-random decision to leave home... I didn't know what I wanted to do, just that I didn't want to be here. And there was no real reason for that other than I'd been here my whole life."
Alana Morgan left life in Seattle to see what might be waiting for her in Chiang Mai, Thailand — where she taught english and established for herself a freelance writing career through her blog, Paper Planes — on it you can find writings about her bigger adventures and a smaller focus on day to day life in Thailand.
I was lucky enough to meet Alana in Greece asked her to come on the show because she not only took the deliberate step to quit her 9-to-5 to make travel a bigger priority in her life, but used it as a tool to find purpose - or at least, enjoyment through exploration and seeing what creating a life for herself might be like abroad.

Mike Wendeland is a trained journalist who in 2012, bought a recreation vehicle or motor home, and while on the road, began covering the beat of the people and experiences they found along the way on his blog, RoadTreking.com.
Mike used to be a traveling journalist for the Detroit News and his curiosity as a reporter has carried over into his retirement, which he’s not taking lying down — but instead, on the road — in his RV, a mobile new media studio, from which he blogs and podcasts on his new show, Roadtreking: The RV Podcast.
As a result of this new project, Mike has attracted an enormous audience of RV enthusiasts to help perpetuate his travels, and who he now inspires to follow in his very unique footsteps.

The post 165: Finding the Right Questions with Mike Wendland appeared first on The Daily Travel Podcast.
At 19 years old, Jake Ducey - a teenage surfer in california - abandoned a drug-addled college education to find out what else, what more, might be waiting for him out there.
What it was that waiting was a book he would go on to write called Into the Wind: My Six Month Journey Wandering the World for Life’s Purpose.
The travel experience effected him so deeply that he promptly returned to raise funds for an orphanage and school in Guatemala, and launch a motivational speaking career to help young people find self-reliance in an increasingly connected society and world.
Now he’s just released, his latest book The Purpose Principles, all about drawing more meaning into your life.
With travel at the core of Jake’s message, I thought I’d bring him on the show to discuss how you can take your curiosity and creativity and find transformation in life, on the road, and off.
A quick preview:
Travel helped Jake find a purpose to give up a scholarship and overcome a background in drug addiction.
A potentially near-death experience while hiking with locals in Lombok, Indonesia gave Jake the epiphany he needed.
The role a shaman played in his life while living in Guatemala and the inspiration Jake draws from his example.
