Wayfinder: Life-Changing Travel

Episode Description from the Publisher

In this special crossover episode from Armchair Explorer, Daniel trades places with award-winning travel writer Aaron Millar and steps into the guest seat. Together, they swap unforgettable stories from the road: from a near-fatal scorpion bite in Angola to a powerful voodoo ceremony in Benin that Daniel calls one of the most meaningful experiences of his life, to the sensory spectacle of Festival Fantasia in the foothills of Morocco's Atlas Mountains. Along the way, they explore a bigger idea: how the best journeys happen when you follow curiosity and instinct instead of chasing checklists and five-star reviews.
