Weird Things I Love When I Travel (And the Cultural Moments That Made Me)
In this episode of the ETJ English podcast, I share some personal travel stories and insights, focusing on the small yet significant experiences that often go unnoticed. The importance of being present during travels, the sensory experiences upon arrival in a new country, and the unique cultural aspects that make each destination special.
I also reflect on the joys of exploring local life, the excitement of the golden hour, and the importance of safety while traveling. This episode serves as a reminder to appreciate the little things that make travel memorable.
