Can you remember the story of the last person you met on the road? Most of the time, they take you into their home, show you how they live, how they work, and you realise how your lives intertwine, with the similarities, eccentricities and novelty of it all.  This is one of the gifts that travel gives us. The opportunity to not only fulfil our wanderlust, but to connect with other humans that are sharing our world, and allow them into our lives, and they do for us. 

Our guest for this episode, Chris Christensen from the Amateur Traveler Podcast has a story for us today that reinforces what we all know - that trusting strangers is… more often than not… probably a good idea. He takes us on a journey into Mexico, tells us all about the ancient history and provides us with more than a few laughs along the way. 

As always, he is accompanied by original music that really allows the story to come to life and take us along the journey with Chris.
