Behind Places and Faces episodes

  • ∣14∣ Poor New Zealand backpackers
    Yes, you read it right! Backpacking jobs are like a diet. You always fall for it, and after 2 months, you are over it. You think you're going to be fit, you're going to earn a lot of money, but in the end, you are exhausted, damaged and you have enough money just for two or three weeks to have holidays to rest. Naaah! It's not that bed. You can actually meet amazing people, you can learn a lot of new things and you are on the fresh air! Come and join the after-work talk with my friend Naïa to hear more!

  • ∣11∣ #love #expirationdate ∣ part three ∣

    Love part three! This time we travelled all the way to Europe, to France (Amandine) and Slovenia (Blažka). We came to the main topic that was on our minds for ages and that is Backpacking and love with an expiration date. We dig into dating, falling in love, relationships, living apart ... And at the end we shared our experiences and love stories.

  • ∣10∣ #love #bornthisway ∣ part two ∣

    In #love ∣ part two ∣ we continue talking about love, dating and cultural differences. Co-talker this time is my VIP - a very important person, Kun Ying.

  • ∣9∣ #love ∣ part one ∣
    "Hey, How is backpacking? Did you meet someone? Did you fall in love?" ... Most common questions that people ask and also the most unanswered ones too. But not this time! I decided to finally dig into love and search for some different opinions about this topic. In ∣part one∣, I invited Anamarija and Inka to join me and discuss love in general (what it means for each of us, how travelling and growing up widen the horizon...). And we also didn't forget about Holy Guacamole stories!

    Who is born and raised Kiwi who actually knows where Slovenia is and how to find the best craft beer there? That's Russell Vessey, a person with a big heart and the best Man cave in Nelson (probably on South Island too). We talked about how Slovenians and other backpackers ended up at his place, how he loves travelling, about some Holy Guacamole moments and ...
