Restid is the Swedish word for ‘travel time’. These podcasts explore the stories of journeys, the theatre of travel, and how people use their travel time.
Whether resting, reading, watching or writing, chatting or listening, travel time is our time, to use as we choose. And a great journey is like a book that you want to finish but not to end.
Travel podcast stories
Despite the rich culture, knowledge and humanity around us, the ability to harness and contribute to community wellbeing is eluding us. With the insights of Wendell Berry, Robin Dunbar and Miles Kington, we might find our way back. Recognising the joys of contrast, hosting and a massive sleepover.

The artist MC Escher said, “Only those who attempt the absurd will achieve the impossible”, while W.H. Auden asks to be told the truth about love.
