In de zomer van 2021 werd Wortel-Kolonie toegevoegd aan de UNESCO-lijst van werelderfgoed. 25 jaar geleden was de gewezen landloperskolonie nochtans één van de 100 meest bedreigde erfgoedsites ter wereld, en nog altijd hebben maar weinig mensen er ooit van gehoord. Wat is het verhaal van de plek? En wat maakt ze zo bijzonder? Dat je in de eerste aflevering van ‘Aan de Rand van het Land'. Lieven van Gils, die er opgroeide, gidst je door de geschiedenis, met de hulp van Geertje Bernaerts en acteurs Bruno Vanden Broecke en Jonas Vermeulen. De verhalen van Danny en Jan in deze podcast, en hun dialogen, hebben hun wortels in de geschiedenis van Wortel-Kolonie, maar zijn verzonnen. Ook hun namen, en de namen van andere personages zijn fictief. Gelijkenissen met echte personen of gebeurtenissen berusten op louter toeval. CREDITS Aan de Rand van het Land is een podcast van UITGESPROKEN voor Stad Hoogstraten, met de gewaardeerde steun van Stedelijk Museum Hoogstraten en Stichting Kempens Landschap. De podcast werd bedacht, geschreven, gemaakt en geregisseerd door Layla El-Dekmak en Don Verboven, met edits van Wouter Van Driessche. De vertelstem is van Lieven Van Gils. De stemmen van Danny en Jan zijn van acteurs Bruno Vanden Broecke en Jonas Vermeulen. De historische duiding is van Geertje Bernaerts. Productie, planning en coördinatie door Tessa Torrekens en Wouter Van Driessche. Muziek, sounddesign en audioproductie door Jordan Hudson van House of Media.

This week Ryan interviews Matt Long, founder of Landlopers, about life as a full-time travel blogger. Matt reflects on his seemingly endless sojourns around the world and why having a permanent homebase is so important. Plus, the boys get to the bottom of a pressing—if cheesy—listener question. Things we talked about in today’s episode: https://landlopers.com/ https://www.instagram.com/landlopers/ https://landlopers.com/2019/02/12/the-explore-the-world-travel-podcast https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/05/arts/design/moma-museum-renovation.html https://www.bostonglobe.com/multimedia/podcasts/gardner-heist-podcast?p1=Article_story_nav
Travel to the capital of the United States capital with the founder of LandLopers.com, Matt Long. Matt has traveled to over 70 different nations and all 7 continents. To say that Matt knows a thing or two about travel would be an understatment. Matt chose to make Washington his home base for his travels and that should say something about his love for the city. In this episode, Matt shows us places to eat where celebrity chefs make the meals (and still keep it to $15 a plate), where the hidden gem of the Smithsonian institutes is, and why all the politicians in Washington are slimy. (Hint: Washington was built on a swamp!)
When Matt Long was a little kid, he memorized the geography sections of the world from the old Peanuts encyclopedia. He had the flag of Scotland hanging on his wall. Flash forward to 2010, and Matt was miserable as a lobbiest for a non-profit in Washington DC. He started his blog, Landlopers.com and two years later, he reached a point where he could take the blog full time. Within a short time, he found out what he wanted to do in life and how to make it happen: A life that makes travel a bigger priority. Today, he runs Landlopers.com where he writes about his travels and works with luxury travel brands, understanding that most people can't take more time than the two weeks they have to travel. On this episode we discuss his life of travel, why he's made it a reality, and his best travel advice. Subscribe on iTunes, Stitcher Radio, Soundcloud or TuneIn What We Discuss How Matt left his career to start a career in travel writing, blogging aExploring the world is one of the best educations you can get.
