Hear about travel to Cyprus as the Amateur Traveler talks to Audrey Scott and Daniel Noll of UncorneredMarket.com about their active Cyprus itinerary.
Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott are the husband-and-wife storytelling team behind Uncornered Market Adventurers, world travelers, adventurers, storytellers, and tourism advisors from the US and based in Berlin. They have been to over 90 countries and are two of my very favorite people in tourism. Their goal is to create a movement of respectful travelers and organizations who live at the intersection of adventure, deep travel experiences, and caring for our planet and its people. We hope not just to inspire, but to help others build a story-filled life, whether that life takes them around the block…or around the world. Today, we speak about Sustainable tourism & adventure travel that cares for our planet & its people. This topic is one that I’m super passionate about as Daniel and Audrey are owners of a tourism development consultancy & travel blog. They aim to humanize the places we visit, drawing our readers in through photographs and stories, so they connect with people and places they might otherwise never hear about or actively disregard. In turn, through their personal interactions, we seek to alter the view of America that people get from watching the news, taking in movies, or watching popular television shows. Call this our small contribution to public diplomacy and mutual understanding in today’s complicated world.Dan took his first trip abroad at the ripe old age of 26. He went to India by himself, discovered another planet located on Earth, and fell terribly ill (dengue fever). He eventually recovered and has struggled with various bouts of the travel bug ever since. Audrey has successfully managed projects in over twenty countries – often remotely – but prefers to be on the ground working directly with the people affected. Coming from a family tradition in international work that goes back three generations, her international focus in life is not a surprise to those who know her well. She looks for everyday universal experiences when she travels and aims to make personal connections with people and cultures in varied environments. She has a weakness for dark chocolate and can bake a mean apple crisp. If you want to know how this travel couple affords to travel the world, they break it down in three ways on their website: Tourism Development and Marketing Advisory Speaking at Conferences and Universities Affiliate sales and website advertising In this episode of The Millennial Travel Podcast we discuss: How Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott started traveling off the beaten path. Where first-time solo travelers should travel. Their opinion on Machu Picchu and how we can combat overtourism. Alternative treks to the Inca Trail How does travel really change people’s lives and how has traveled changed Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott’s life? How has travel pushed Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott to become better people? How can people make an impact while traveling or volunteering in a sustainable way. In The Millennial Travel Podcast rapid fire round I ask: Favorite travel resource Daniel: Kayak.com Audrey: Nomadic Matt’s and Jodi from Legal Nomads Country that has made the most impact on them Audrey: Kyrgyzstan Daniel: India Favorite international dish Daniel: Masala dosa in India or sushi Audrey: Homemade pasta in Tuscany Resources: UncorneredMarket.com @uncornered_market on Instagram @umarket on Twitter Direct support for The Millennial Travel Podcast comes from The Millennial Travel Guidebook: Escape More, Spend Less, & Make Travel a Priority in Your Life and our new USA camping and hiking trips from Under30Experiences!

Envie de voyager différemment ? D'aller dans des endroits un peu moins touristiques ? Dans cette interview, on retrouve Laurent, voyageur un peu spécial car il est attiré par les pays laissés de côté et préfère éviter les foules de touristes. Vous allez découvrir le parcours de Laurent, son histoire avec le voyage, les pays qu'il a visités, sa façon de voyager ou encore ses conseils si vous souhaitez sortir des sentiers battus.

Cependant, on remarque que la plupart des voyageurs se contentent d'en visiter seulement une infime partie. Les touristes affluent sur Barcelone, la Thaïlande, Bali, le Machu Picchu ... et suivent continuellement les conseils de magazine et les dernières "tendances voyage. Mais il est possible de voyager différemment, d'explorer certaines parties du monde laissées de côté par les voyageurs. Laurent fait partie de ces "voyageurs expérimentateurs" qui s'aventurent hors des sentiers battus pour essayer d'avoir une expérience plus authentique à l'étranger. Dans cette interview, on parle du profil de Laurent, de son premier voyage en Inde, de son année sabbatique, la manière dont il voyage, ses meilleurs souvenirs, son amour pour les pays en -stan, l'existence ou non du danger dans des pays peu connus, comment il arrive à communiquer ou encore ses conseils si vous souhaitez partir hors des sentiers battus.

Cherchez "Traverser La Frontière" Écoute en ligne : dans le lecteur ci-dessous Voyager hors des sentiers battus: Le résumé écrit de l'interview Laurent est ingénieur en micro électronique, il va bientôt avoir 43 ans et habite à Paris. Il a commencé à voyager en 1997 en Inde pour dans le cadre de son travail. Son entreprise l’a envoyé à Bangalore pour 2 semaines avec un collègue. La découverte de l'Inde Il n’avait jamais voyagé auparavant et n’est pas issu d’un milieu où l’on voyage vraiment. Même s’il se doutait que l’Inde était différente de la France, il ne se doutait pas que ce qu’il en était en réalité. Il a réalisé que les choses peuvent être vraiment différentes dans un autre pays ! Cette première expérience lui a donné le gout du voyage. En Inde, il a trouvé qu’il y avait une saturation de tout ! De tous les sens. Ce que tu vois, ce que tu entends, ce que tu sens … tout est vraiment très différent. En arrivant à Delhi, il se sentait complètement perdu. L'année 2000 : un an de voyage non-stop En 2000, Laurent a réalisé son premier et unique grand voyage, celui de partir de la France pour rejoindre le Laos, le tout par voie terrestre. Sauf au niveau de la Birmanie où il a dû prendre un vol. Laurent travaillait en Irlande à l’époque, mais souhaitait quitter son job dans lequel il ne se plaisait plus. Mais avant de retrouver un emploi, il avait envie de voyager un peu. Il s’est fixé un voyage d’un an, une sorte de « norme » dans le voyage au long cours. Il a hésité à prendre un billet tour du monde, mais s’est finalement laissé convaincre par un ami de faire le voyage par voie terrestre. Choix qu’il n’a jamais regretté, au contraire. Cela lui a permis de voyager dans des pays où il ne connaissait rien et qu’il n’avait pas forcément prévu d’aller, comme le Pakistan qui fut une véritable découverte pour Laurent.
If you search the internet for travel bloggers it won’t take you long to stumble across Jodi Ettenberg. Her website Legal Nomads regularly ranks highly on the list of world’s top travel bloggers and has featured in numerous publications since she hit the road back in 2008 after 5 years working as a lawyer in New York. Her long form story telling style of blog has gone against the grain of standard blogging practice but has won her a huge following amongst a loyal group of followers who appreciate the depth and insightfulness of the stories she shares. Jodi’s travels aren’t without their challenges. As a celiac sufferer finding the right place to eat in a new town can be daunting. Her website includes useful advice and tips from those suffering from this disease or gluten intolerance generally and her attitude and spirit shows that you don’t need to let major health challenges stand in the road of being a fulltime travelers. We caught up with Jodi in Chiang Mai where we discussed her attitude to blogging and how street food can be one of the best ways to monitor what you eat. You’ll find details of her stories and her food guide at her website www.legalnomads.com What I learned from Jodi’s interview: 1. Jodi is absolutely right when it comes to travel blogging. You can rank well with posts about 10 best things to do in Penang but in reality you are only providing your readers with information they can gain elsewhere. If you’re serious about developing a blog then you need to inject some of yourself into the story and provide a perspective they would not find elsewhere. This will make you unique and draw a true following over time. Jodi writes long form blogs which her audience appreciates and it’s not unknown for her to write 5000 word posts or longer. Much like The Uncornered Market she has focused on quality over quantity. 2. Even if you suffer from food allergies or a reaction to certain foods it’s no reason to avoid travel. Jodi is a celiac which means certain foods can have an effect on her. She needs to spend more time researching where she will eat than most people but to a large extent she would still be having to do this even if she wasn’t on the road. She has gluten free food guides www.legalnomads.com/gluten-free on her website along with her book, The Food Traveler’s Handbook which is a great starting point for anyone suffering from gluten intolerance who is planning to travel. 3. She finds street food a great way to deal with her celiac condition. It’s difficult in a restaurant to see what’s going on in the kitchen but when it’s cooked fresh in front of you, there is a much better chance to control what you’re receiving. Street food, contrary to popular opinion, is often a good way to avoid general sickness as it enables you to see the general cleanliness and how quickly the food is being turned over.
If hitchhiking through Iran, joining the Arab spring or camping (accidentally) in a minefield in Bosnia sounds like your idea of fun then you’re going to love today’s episode. Growing up as a West German living in East Germany was a strange experience for Josh Cahill. The wall had fallen but much of East Germany was still stark and oppressed. He felt like the odd one out and developed a desire to explore the world and discover the realty of things for himself. The 29 year old has been on the road now for 7 years exploring many exciting places along the way – in fact he often makes a point of seeing the places that the media will often tell you not to go to (Kabul, Afghanistan anyone?) and his experiences have always been enjoyable. We caught up with Josh in China where he is currently teaching English and he shared his experiences of life there (including how to get around the internet restrictions) , how couchsurfing works for him, and much of the wonderful journeys he has had so far. His website http://www.gotravelyourway.com details much of his journey. What I learned from talking to Josh: Going to China doesn’t have to be a problem if you’re a digital nomad. Josh gets around Facebook and other restrictions by using a VPN server to cover his location and whereabouts. Again Iran gets a mention. This is the third time now (after Uncornered Market and The Crowded Planet) we have had travelers tell us how much they have enjoyed the experience of visiting there. Access is getting easier with visas now being available upon entry and even Americans and Canadians can find it relatively easy to gain access. It sounds well worth a visit. Josh is a couchsurfing master having done it almost since the concept was created. He talks about building up your credibility and the benefits that couchsurfing meeting groups can bring when you’re new to a town, not only in finding accommodation but discovering the things to see and do.
If you think traveling the globe has to be all about scraping by on meagre savings and sleeping on dirt floors – think again. There are many travel bloggers who have built very successful businesses from their adventures and today you’re going to meet one of the most successful. US citizens Audrey Scott and Daniel Noll first hit the road in 2002 living in Prague, Czech Republic while working corporate jobs. After 5 years they decided they needed some adventure and in 2006 hit the road on a journey which, given the savings they had, was expected to last around 12 to 18 months. They were amongst the earliest travel bloggers out there and realized after a period of time that there were people interested in their story beyond family members. With an ever growing following they worked on their website and blog to the extent that it now provides them with an income through sponsored arrangements and leads through speaking engagements including Ted Talks they have given. If you want to learn more about their travels and how they have successfully built a thriving travel business from their journey you can check out their resources at http://uncorneredmarket.com/world-travel-resources or see them speak at the TBEX Dublin travel conference What I learned from speaking with Audrey and Dan: It’s possible to have a travel lifestyle on steroids. These guys now get well over 1 million website views per annum aside from their various social media and You Tube hits. They have given Ted Talks and are regularly asked to speak at some of the largest travel conferences around. There is a whole industry out there which is bigger than most people realize – it was especially interesting to hear the dynamics of the travel conferences, who goes, and what gets discussed. It might sound like the good life but there is a point where hitting the road permanently can seem too much. Audrey and Dan hit this around the 5 year mark, as have many of their traveling friends, and hence their decision to settle in Berlin for around 6 months of each year, giving them the chance to nest again. If you decide to hit the road make sure you have a landing plan should you decide you want to set up roots somewhere, at least for part of the year. As exciting as it is to be paid to do what you love it can be difficult finding a break between lifestyle and earning a living when you make your money from reporting how you live. Audrey and Dan have to try and segment their time and have experiences that they don’t feel obliged to blog about. It’s important to have clear distinctions between “work “travel and pleasure for the sake of your own enjoyment. It was interesting to hear their approach to writing a travel blog. They have replaced quantity with quality, reducing their number of articles down from 10-15 per month to around 2-4. The articles are longer however and tell more of a story which was a consistent theme they spoke about during their interview. It’s not unusual to find them doing 10-15 redrafts of their posts – something that would shock most bloggers, but it’s a reflection of the quality that they want to put into their articles – not only for readers but for sponsors who they promote.

The Amateur Traveler talks to Audrey Scott and Daniel Knoll of UncorneredMarket.com about Prague where they lived for 5 years. Audrey and Daniel are currently traveling around the world and talked to me from El Salvador. Audrey and Daniel talk about the touristy things to do in Prague like the Prague castle, the Charles bridge and Wenceslas Square. They also talk about the touristy things that they would recommend skipping like Karlova street and its souvenir stands (they even give us a shortcut through the university and the Karolinum to avoid it). They would not; however, skip drinking Czech beer in a beer garden like the Latna (but would pass on Czech wine). They tell us how to walk around the barkers in period costumes selling packaged concerts to tourists and find the real music scene in Prague from classical to Balkan. Since they have moved on you can’t crash on their couch but you can share in their expertise of how to cherish Prague.
