Bugs the size of dinner plates, a staring contest in Thailand, and unintentionally creating a well sought-after self-defense class from a desire to feel safer and more confident while traveling. Be prepared to laugh and learn some new skills as we explore the world of solo travel. Featured on this episode is my good friend Jess who takes us on one wild adventure! She’s traveled to many places around the world on her own and shares some creative ways she’s got out of potential sketchy situations—one involving an unexpected guest at her cabin in the jungle. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
