    EP:14 | The Day I Almost Sank A Yacht
    Apr 13 2020

    Welcome to Season 2 aka Episode 14. There will be plenty more interviews with travel influencers as well as stories from the road. In this episode I go way back to my early advetnures to recount the time I almost sank a yacht in the Florida Keys. If you've known me for a while, maybe you've heard this one before. I don't want to spoil it for those who haven't. I also tried adding some SFX for this story so let me know if you liked them or thought they were a distraction. Enjoy!
