Welcome to this week's solo episode. I am accumulating the best travel stories from my previous guest, Rachel Fox. Rachel has appeared on the episode five times, and I put together the funniest travel stories for you. We hear her speaking to a horse, how she took 36 hours to cross the border from Honduras, shouting Socorro at the worst possible time in Brazil, the devasting case of money she missed out on when sailing from Panama to Colombia, and so much more! Prepare yourself for some ridiculous anecdotes and some good ole laughs. Enjoy!

Welcome to a bonus episode this week where I am asked some questions by the unofficial producer of this podcast designed for you to get to know your host better.
