Jess Sunnanon talks about his adventures as a seven year old kid in the 60s traveling around Southeast Asia - getting imprisoned by the police in Myanmar, sleeping in Thai Buddhist temples and sneaking into cockpits & boxing rings.

Denise and Neil talk about the memorable people they met while traveling - from a stranger-turned-friend who has a villa in Bali, Airbnb host who paved way for a training program to be opened in Tokyo, German traveler who turned into a business partner, an aggressive Nepalese denied of a date, Joker and Harlequin in Hollywood asking if Filipinos eat dogs, and the French who date Filipinos. These strangers can definitely make your trips more real, colorful and meaningful!
