Ep 9 My Twin Brother Devon: Travel Experiences in The Balkans + Getting His Degree in International Affairs | The Open Road Podcast

Welcome to The Open Road. I am your host Megan also known as Rootless Adventure Company. I am a full time outdoor adventurer and creative entrepreneur on a mission to make every moment of this beautiful life count. As someone who has built a life around travel after leaving my hometown for the very first time at 18, I've learned that we can truly do anything we set our minds to in this lifetime. I help people just like you and I live a fulfilling life that prioritizes freedom, happiness, and our adventurous bucket lists.

In today’s episode I am going to be interviewing my twin brother Devon. Through gap years, music tours, and study abroad programs, he has certainly made travel a priority in his adult life and career. He just recently completed his studies for his master’s degree from Boston University in International Affairs with a specialization in Security Studies. He focuses on the Western Balkans and the former Yugoslavia and is about to head to Belgrade, Serbia for a year to learn the language, do an internship, and finish his thesis research. Listen as we dive into his travel experiences, his wisdom, and our life as twins.
