About this listen

Nearly two decades ago, when I was 30, I left the UK with a round-the-world ticket, and no plan to return. I kept the whole thing a secret. I then spent seven months drifting through Dubai, India, Hong Kong, South East Asia, and finally on to Australia. This was way before smartphones, Google Maps, or Instagram ever existed. I wrote everything down in internet cafés, trying to capture it all as honestly as I could. This podcast tells the story of why it’s been sat untouched on my hard drive for almost 20 years. And why I think the world is finally ready to hear it.

    This isn’t the official trailer, but it’s probably the closest thing to one for now. In this bitesize clip from the opening episode I talk about why I’m finally publishing the words I wrote all those years ago.

    You’ll hear how my nephew read a piece of my diary about scuba diving that left a lasting impression on him.

    How I’d managed to capture something he'd felt himself but couldn’t quite put into words. And how his reaction made me wonder who else this might speak to in 2025.

    If you’re curious why someone would share something this old, in the hope that it still means something, grab your headphones and get involved. You can listen to the full opening episode here on Apple Podcasts or here on Spotify.

    It’s lovely to have you along for the ride.

    Much love & travel blessings,

    Rich xx
