On this episode we’re joined by the Canadian traveler, author and radio host, Melissa Rodway. She is the voice behind FLY Travel Radio, author of The People You Meet , and has traveled extensively across Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand and Europe, even living in six different Canadian cities. We talk about the strange pull of travel and why the journey home can sometimes hit harder than the trip itself. Melissa shares stories from years on the road, the countries that felt like a second home, and the moments that pushed her to her limits. We also explore how travel changes the way you see yourself, the unforgettable characters who shape your adventures, and the surprising challenges of travelling as a couple while chasing the freedom of the unknown.
