Hello and welcome to number 77! This week I am joined by award winning UK travel writer and former Time Out journalist, Peter Fiennes. Peter and I talk about his latest book 'A Thing Of Beauty: Travels in Mythical and Modern Greece'. We delve into his trip during COVID times to Greece in search of Hope and the places mentioned in Greek mythology. Peter candidly talks about the challenges we face as a human race on climate change which can be seen in modern Greece. I ask about his favourite spots in Greece, his favourite myths, what he learnt from the locals and his previous stint with Time Out Magazine. It was a pleasure to talk to Peter about all things Greece and travel and you should check out his book below.

Welcome to the fourth episode in this Friday series and this week I give my reaction to Frank's hitchhiking philosophy, how I love my trendy coffees and my exciting new venture. I talk about how Frank has inspired me to really give hitchhiking a real good go and I need to find that temple on the top of the mountain in Taiwan. I want authentic monks, views and culture. Also in the pipeline is my new video/audio podcast about coffee and travelling so I talk about my new idea. Towards the end of I discuss that weird situation in travel where you have the best time of your life with a new group of friends for two days then you never see them again. Something to ponder. I hope you enjoy the episode. Be inspired!Winging It Travel PodcastMy Patreon Page - https://www.patreon.com/wingingittravelpodcast SIGN UP TODAYWhat is on offer?1. One bonus episode every month2.

This week, The Musafir Stories speaks to Ayush Kumar, solo traveller and photographer as he takes us to the hill town of Coonoor in Tamil Nadu! Today's destination: Coonoor, Tamil NaduNearest Airport: Coimbatore International Airport - CJBNearest Railway Station: Coonoor Railway Station (ONR)Prerequisites - N/APacking - Pack warm clothes, depending on the time of the yearTime of the year - Summers (March to May) and winters (October to February) are ideal time to visitLength of the itinerary: 3-5 daysItinerary Highlights: Ayush takes us to the quaint little hill town of Coonoor on the podcast today - we begin the journey on the historic UNESCO World Heritage Site, Nilgiri Mountain Railway or popularly known as the toy train. The train runs from Mettupalayam to Udhagamandalam or Ooty, making stops at several beautiful stations, including Coonoor. Make sure to book the tickets well in advance as the demand is very high during the tourist season! The toy train runs 3 times a day between Ooty and Mettupalayam, and is one of the steepest lines that is run on a narrow gauge rail line supported on a rack and pinion mechanism. The journey takes about 5 hours, and is one of the few lines that still runs on a steam engine (for a part of the journey). Other stations in the journey include Runnymede, Ketti, Hillgrove, Lovedale and Wellington. The railway line has also been featured in a number of popular movies including the SRK/Mailaika song “Chaiyya Chaiyya” and Kamal Hasan/Sridevi starrer Sadma. The Nilgiri biosphere is also an ecological hotspot that is teeming with wildlife and hundreds of species of flora and fauna. The western ghat formation is believed to be at least 150million years old, making this a significant part of the Indian subcontinent. After enjoying the train ride, Ayush covers off the touristy places in Coonoor including Sim's Park, Lamb's Rock and Dolphin's nose to get a view of the beautiful Catherine Waterfalls. As you are visiting these spots, make sure to visit tea estates in the vicinity like Glen Morgan, Homedale, Glen Mark, Highfield tea estate, Guernsey Tea factory etcOther places Ayush explores include Tiger Hills and the cemetery, Wellington, Kotagiri among some of the other places. From a local cuisine perspective, make sure to check out Ramachandra restaurant (hotel) for some mouthwatering local dishes.

The trip also includes a visit to the Defence college, Wellington Lake and the Wellington Station. Other points of interest in the vicinity include Mudumalai Tiger Reserve, Bandipur Tiger reserve and Kotagiri.

On 15th April 1912, the RMS Titanic sank into the Atlantic Ocean. 100 years later, the city of Belfast inaugurated the opulent Titanic Museum, built at the cost of a whopping 116 million Euros. The museum also tells another story, that of the rise of Belfast city, making it one of the largest ports in the world. But there is another story, which it does not tell, and it involves India. This week, in the seventh episode of the series, Ireland Untravelled, we travel from Belfast in Northern Ireland, to Mosul in Iraq to Calicut in India, and uncover the global shame of western museums. Tune in, and discover the story of the decimation of a rich Indian cultural tradition.Morse code audio sourced from Meridian Outpost: https://www.meridianoutpost.com/resources/etools/calculators/calculator-morse-code.phpTill then Check out the other episodes of "Ireland Untravelled"Lost Treasures, Dynamite and the Irish Nation : https://ivm.today/3okwxm5Gaelic and the stunning decline of the Irish Language : https://ivm.today/3zmhE9iTrinity Long Room and the Soul of the Irish Nation : https://ivm.today/3PnZkSEU2, Body Snatching and the Irish Way of Death : https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3You can check previous episodes of 'Podcasts from Nowhere' on IVM Podcasts websitehttps://ivm.today/3xuayw9You can reach out to our host Utsav on Instagram: @whywetravel42(https://www.instagram.com/whywetravel42)You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.

I've already learned a lot from my daughter and her friends, the questions they ask, and the concerns they have. I will continue to be open to learning from the younger generation, and I think the second that you give up hope is the second that you have declared failure. And I think nobody wants to declare failure. People want to still have children and want to still go to beautiful places and want those places to be safe and clean.”https://marciadesanctis.comA Hard Place to Leavewww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgPhoto credit: Elena Seibert

She lives in Connecticut."I started looking over the stories that I had done. I would say the majority of the essays were not really about travel. They were more about aging and marriage and memory and all of those things, but I did find in the travel essays those kernels of things that I wanted to explore - bigger kernels of things that were sort of scratching at me from the inside like a piece of sand in my pocket that was irritating me and that I wanted to explore. What I found was that the theme of coming and going, the theme of arrivals and departures, the theme of entrances and exits, and the theme of home and away seemed to repeat itself. I felt that whenever I was somewhere, there was always a tide home. And when I was home, there was always the urge for going. And so I just weeded out and weeded out and really wanted to keep this theme of home and away."https://marciadesanctis.comA Hard Place to Leavewww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgPhoto credit: Elena Seibert

And it is really important that they have a voice and their voice is being heard. I mean, little Seychelles, population 100,000, is depending on the industrialized countries to do their part. But, sort of like my generation to the younger generation, industrialized countries are becoming aware of what they have done to these exploited countries, coastal countries, or island nations. And so, because they are aware of what they have done and the risks that all of our fossil fuels and a million other things have done to some of these more poor nations, they are giving these smaller places a seat at the table and letting their voices be louder and more heard. At some point, even ceding the floor to them, which I think is a really positive thing.”https://marciadesanctis.comA Hard Place to Leavewww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgPhoto credit: Elena Seibert

Across the countryside in Ireland there are roads which go nowhere, and there are houses nobody lives in. The thousands of traveller less roads and empty homes have a singular story behind them. This week, in the sixth episode of the series, Ireland Untravelled, we uncover the greatest single event in Irish history - The Potato Famine. Tune in, to discover how the Famine irrevocably changed the very character of Ireland, and maybe even the genetics of its inhabitants and its bizzare connection with pre partition undivided Bengal.Till then Check out the other episodes of "Ireland Untravelled"Lost Treasures, Dynamite and the Irish Nation : https://ivm.today/3okwxm5Gaelic and the stunning decline of the Irish Language : https://ivm.today/3zmhE9iTrinity Long Room and the Soul of the Irish Nation : https://ivm.today/3PnZkSEU2, Body Snatching and the Irish Way of Death : https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3You can check previous episodes of 'Podcasts from Nowhere' on IVM Podcasts websitehttps://ivm.today/3xuayw9You can reach out to our host Utsav on Instagram: @whywetravel42(https://www.instagram.com/whywetravel42)You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.

Welcome to the second episode in this Friday series and this week I give my reaction to B's most annoying habits when she works as a flight attendant. Luckily, she agreed with all of mine and I loved firing all the different questions at her. I also give an insight this week into how I am planning my Mexico trip this year. I talk about where I start with flights, how to research best time of year to go, what hostels I have on my list, the things I want to see and do and of course the food I want to eat. For the personal stuff I talk about my favourite dishes that I have eaten whilst traveling. I delve into some of my favourite hostels as well as give you an insight into my worst dorm I have ever stayed in, in Thailand hence part of the title in this episode. Cheers all!

In the early 1960's, a young man from the Varad village on the Konkan Coast of India goes to study medicine at KEM Hospital in Bombay. Continents away in Paris at the Pere Lachaise cemetery, lies buried one of the finest playwrights and poets of the 19th century. A song by the Irish Punk Rock band - The Radiators releases a song that features one of the most iconic spots of Dublin. What connects these three diverging stories? This week, in the fifth episode of the series, Ireland Untravelled, we travel from Bombay to Paris to Dublin to discover the improbable story of the victory for LGBTQ rights in Ireland. Tune in, and discover, that how in just one generation, Ireland went from criminalizing homosexuality to providing the LGBTQ+ community with equal marriage and adoption rights.Listen to Under Clery's Clock : https://open.spotify.com/track/6qVvO2LwV4xlDN3ZIjUdyT?si=lpiQgwuaQo-uWf_BtqmIlA&context=spotify%3Asearch%3Aunder%2BcleryTill then Check out the other episodes of "Ireland Untravelled"Lost Treasures, Dynamite and the Irish Nation : https://ivm.today/3okwxm5Gaelic and the stunning decline of the Irish Language : https://ivm.today/3zmhE9iTrinity Long Room and the Soul of the Irish Nation : https://ivm.today/3PnZkSEU2, Body Snatching and the Irish Way of Death : https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3You can check previous episodes of 'Podcasts from Nowhere' on IVM Podcasts websitehttps://ivm.today/3xuayw9You can reach out to our host Utsav on Instagram: @whywetravel42(https://www.instagram.com/whywetravel42)You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.

This week, The Musafir Stories speaks to Surya Raju who was the very first guest on the podcast when we started more than 5 years ago talking about her experience on the Kedarkantha Trek! Today's destination: Kedarkantha, Uttarakhand!Nearest Airport: Dehradun Airport (DED)Nearest Railway Station: Dehradun Railway Station (DDN)Prerequisites - Permit requiredPacking - Pack trekking gear and warm clothesTime of the year - DecemberLength of the itinerary: 6 daysItinerary Highlights: Surya talks about the USP of the trek, as well as the difficulty level and preparation required. The railway head for the trek is Dehradun from where the trek company takes the team to Sankri, the starting point of the trek. Sankri is a small village that serves as the base camp for a lot of treks including Harki Dun, Rupin pass along with Kedarkantha trek. It is situated at about 200kms from Dehradun and some buses ply to this little village. The first day's trek involves trekking for about 5 hours and camping at the Juda Ka Talaav - a high altitude alpine lake. This is the first pitstop and provides some wonderful views with the stunning alpine lake surrounded by trees and some dense forests. The stop is a great chance not just to rest and recoup from the first day's trek but also acclimatise with the altitude and get to know your trekking group. The next day's trek is fairly easy and the team gains relatively less in terms of elevation. The destination of the second day's trekking is the Kedarkantha base camp. The team not only rests here, but also prepares for the snow trek with microspikes to ensure grip. The final day of trekking starts very early in the morning, as early as 1AM when the team sets off for the Kedarkantha peak. This is the most strenuous of days given that the team has to not only summit the peak but also return to the base camp at Sankri. The trek involves an ascent in sub zero temperatures on very narrow ridges and severe conditions. However the views once you reach the summit are worth every bit. One gets a view of neighbouring Himalayan peaks including Nanda Ghunti, Swargarohini, Kalanag peak, Gangotri and Yamunotri ranges amongst others. The descent involves taking the same route back to the Kedarkanta base camp followed by a descend to Sankri, usually through a different route.

This week, The Musafir Stories speaks to Amol Wanjari, co-founder of Orange Odyssey - a tour company specialising in curating heritage experiences around Nagpur, Maharashtra! Today's destination: Nagpur, MaharashtraNearest Airport: Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport (NAG)Nearest Railway Station: Nagpur Railway Station (NGP)Prerequisites - N/APacking - Pack lightTime of the year - October to February, winters are ideal time to visitLength of the itinerary: 3 hoursItinerary Highlights: Amol takes us on a guided heritage tour around the old city of Nagpur, uncovering the evolution of Nagpur. The evolution takes us from the prehistoric time to the post-independence era, unravelling a layered history of Nagpur. The first reference is of the stone circles at Junapani and Mahurjari that date back to the megalithic period. There are 300 such stone circles dating back to 3000 years ago and are believed to be burial sites of those periods. There is also a copper inscription at Devri dating back to the 10th century, probably from the Rashtrakuta period that mentions Nagpur. Then we discuss the Gond era, the Gond Fort, the foundation of Modern Nagpur, and the brief rule of Gods at Nagpur.

On 25th August 1992, the Serbian paramilitaries set fire to the National Library of Sarajevo. The library burned for 2 days and 2 nights before the fire could be bought under control. A few centuries prior in 1592, Trinity College was established in Dublin, and it became the first university in all of Ireland and UK to award degrees to women. But what could possibly connect these two disparate cultures across time and space? This week, in the third episode of the series, Ireland Untravelled, we arrive at the Long Room of the Old Library at Trinity College Dublin and understand how and why it houses the soul of the Irish Nation.Till then Check out the other episodes of "Fabulous Foods"Coconuts, Cold War and Nuclear Fusion :- https://ivm.today/3riUjReIndian Jews, Konkan Coast and Kippur-Chi-Puri :- https://ivm.today/3KEh8qhNutmeg: The World's Most Violent Spice :- https://ivm.today/3uE4bY4Portuguese, Banned Languages and Grinding Songs :- https://ivm.today/3JEpZH7Dosa, Apocalypse and Dashavataras of Vishnu :- https://ivm.today/3xoXfQbClove, Transnational Smuggling and Nostalgia: https://ivm.today/3GDnrckBiryani vs Pulao, Deceit and Mughlai Cooking : https://ivm.today/3xuayw9Taboo Foods, Hindu Epics and Dharma : https://ivm.today/3zblDplNine Poisons, Tamil Mountain Gods and Food as Faith : https://ivm.today/3t7twrSA 400 Year Old Curse, Coffee and Indian Chinese food : https://ivm.today/38UX3hWCooking Rhinoceros, Rajputana Kings and Fake Meat : https://ivm.today/3x6nRoEYou can check previous episodes of 'Podcasts from Nowhere' on IVM Podcasts websitehttps://ivm.today/3xuayw9You can reach out to our host Utsav on Instagram: @whywetravel42(https://www.instagram.com/whywetravel42)You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.

Is time travel possible? According to physicists, yes. Time travel *to the future* is not only possible, it's been scientifically proven. But what about traveling to the past? Well, that's a little trickier. BUT, there does seem to be evidence that travelers from the future have visited us in the past; and may be among us right now. The human race has been fascinated with traveling through time ever since, well, ever since the human race understood what time was. But has time travel been achieved by future humans? And if so, did they leave us clues that they were here? We've scoured the internet for the best time travel stories we could find. You may know some of them. Some are hoaxes. A few have been debunked. But there are a couple of stories that defy explanation. Why are we so obsessed with time travel? Probably because we're obsessed with time. Time rules our lives. Who doesn't wish they could go back and talk to our younger selves, or meet our ancestors, or witness historical events. Time creates possibilities; but time also *ends* possibilities. It's finite. When a moment is over. It's over. There are no second chances. The expression "time is money" isn't exactly true. Time is much more valuable than money. Wealth can be made; lost and made again. But time? Once we lose it, we can never get it back. Time is the most valuable thing you have. Spend it wisely.
