 Harry Mitsidis joins Matt for a wide-ranging discussion of his extensive travels. He starts off talking about his cultural background, and how his interest in sociology overlapped with his passion for travel. He then shares about his experience learning 10 languages, including Serbian, and gives detailed recommendations for places to visit in Serbia. Next, he talks about his experiences in Ukraine and Palestine, and why both places are special to him. Harry then shares stories from his 4 visits to Yemen, including his experience getting arrested and spending a night in jail. Matt and Harry then reflect on the bribery economy in certain places around the world. Next, Harry talks about his road trip around Nigeria, his visits to Somalia, and his travels across the Democratic Republic of Congo, including his experience going gorilla trekking there. FULL SHOW NOTES INCLUDING LINKS TO EVERYTHING DISCUSSED ARE AVAILABLE HERE.
