#39: Welcome to a special episode of Manifest Travel where I’m doing something a little different and sharing an episode from one of my all-time favorite podcasts, The Maverick Show with Matt Bowles.

If you’ve been following Manifest Travel, you’ve heard me mention Matt and his show more than once. He’s a friend, mentor, and an incredible host who brings powerful conversations about travel, entrepreneurship, and social justice to the forefront. The episode I’m sharing today features Danielle Hu, the founder of The Wanderlover brand, business, and podcast!

Danielle is a surfing enthusiast, a location-independent entrepreneur, and a full-time world traveler who has built a wildly successful lifestyle around her passions.

In this episode, Danielle shares her inspiring journey—from her parents’ immigration story and growing up navigating Chinese and American identities in New York, to studying abroad in Italy and Hong Kong. She takes us behind the scenes of her transition from corporate life to a thriving career as an entrepreneur, podcaster, and digital nomad.

You’ll hear her biggest tips for building a remote business, growing a social media presence, and creating digital products, plus insights on finding love as a digital nomad and making relationships work on the road. Danielle also talks about structuring her days for productivity, traveling safely to 60 countries, and her reflections on what 'home' and 'travel' mean to her after six years of full-time adventure.
