Beschrijving

Ayyyy welcome back to your fave travel podcast. Thanks for tuning in and getting yourself ready to make some MOVES with me. Let's get it! In the Season 5 premier, I am joined by Tristan aka Tristan's Expeditions from Atlanta, Georgia. Tristan has been traveling the world for much of his life and has already traveled to over 100 countries! Today, we focus on Lebanon—a destination often misunderstood, but overflowing with depth, beauty, and cultural richness. We dive into Lebanon’s incredible wine region, where ancient traditions meet modern winemaking in dramatic mountain landscapes. We explore its layered history, from Phoenician roots to Roman influences, and uncover archaeological sites that bring the past vividly to life. Along the way, we highlight the country’s world-class cuisine—vibrant, fresh, and deeply tied to its land and heritage. This conversation reveals a side of Lebanon far beyond headlines: a place of resilience, generosity, and extraordinary cultural wealth that deserves to be experienced, not overlooked.

Iran Through the Eyes of a Woman Traveler

Ayyyy welcome back to your fave travel podcast. Thanks for tuning in and getting yourself ready to make some MOVES with me. Let's get it! In Season 5 Episode 5, I am joined by Andrea, a solo female traveler with roots in both Norway and the Philippines, who has been traveling the world full time for the past two years as a travel content creator, freelance social media manager, and group tour host. After growing up in the Philippines until the age of 14 and later moving to Norway, Andrea began solo traveling at 20 — but it was a volunteering trip to India after university that completely transformed her perspective on travel and life. In this episode, we dive into Andrea's recent adventures in one of the most engimatic country that is always in the news for the wrong reasons- Iran. From the busy streets of Tehran to the spiritual city of Mashhad, the colorful beauty of Shiraz, and the desert charm of Yazd, Andrea opens up about what surprised her most while exploring one of the world’s most misunderstood countries. We discuss cultural expectations, dress codes, safety, hospitality, and the realities of solo female travel in Iran. Andrea also reflects on the meaningful connections she made with locals, how Iranian culture challenged many of the stereotypes she had previously heard, and why the experience left such a lasting impression on her. As someone passionate about authentic travel experiences and deeper cultural understanding, Andrea shares valuable insight into navigating Iran respectfully while embracing the kindness, history, and beauty that make the country so unique. This episode offers an honest and eye-opening perspective for anyone curious about traveling to Iran — especially as a female traveler. Tune in today!
