WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life

Most people (including Africans) would love it if Africa no longer needed charity. If Africa was able to economically stand on its own two feet, charities could focus efforts elsewhere. The planet would be better off.

Although parts of Africa are rich, most parts are still poor.

The question is: how can we help lift Africans out of poverty?

China and India lifted over one billion people out of poverty in the last 30 years. 

Africa has one billion poor.

Most agree that charities are not a long-term solution to help build African wealth. 

The secret is to do what China and India have done. Africans must provide goods and services that the rest of the world (and other Africans) value. 

If they can't do that, they will always be mired in poverty.

The Anou is working to build a long-term solution for one corner of Africa called Morocco.

The Anou is an online marketplace optimized for illiterate Moroccans (and others). Ever since 2011, Dan Driscoll has been helping Moroccan artisans make a living.

Dan explains how QR codes help illiterate artisans. He reveals the challenges of creating a vertically-aligned enterprise. Most important, Dan is working hard to make himself obsolete. 

As Dan wrote in an email to me, "The goal of Anou's work is to get artisans themselves to restructure how Morocco's artisan economy works so that it works for artisans, rather than against them. Artisans right now have an opportunity to change how everything here works, so whether it be a mill or sophisticated logistics, it all serves to enable artisans to consolidate power and influence to change things as they see fit. Getting artisans paid a little more is just collateral of solving more structural problems, which is why Anou, which is largely managed by artisans outside of me, is distinctly different than all the people who are here in Morocco trying to just help individual artisans with a little more cash."

Fact Check: At the start of the episode, I refer to Cape Town's water rationing. I guesstimated that the South African city officials limited locals to 30 liters, but I was wrong. Each person was rationed 50 liters.

Nigeria's Election is Tomorrow!

On February 16, 2019, Nigeria will pick their new president. Learn more about the Nigerian election on Wikipedia.

In the 28th WanderLearn podcast episode, I interview Sharon Georgewill. She's a Nigerian from Port Harcourt.

She's traveled to many African countries. When I interviewed her in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, I asked her to reflect on her continent and her country.

As a bonus, Rejoice Tapon, my wife, interjected a few times during the interview.

You'll probably get an unseen side of Nigeria and Africa.

After listening to this podcast, find out who won the election! On January 1, 2019, I predicted that Atiku Abubakar would win.

Was I right?

Find out!

Vagabonding is a seminal travel book. The author, Rolf Potts, made people realize that they don't need to settle for just two weeks a vacation every year. Rolf shows you how you can travel for two months per year or even travel nonstop for two years!

In this podcast, Rolf and I discuss:

• How we both got drunk at an early age.


• How did he get into hiking and rock climbing?


• How does he stay in shape while traveling?


• What's more lucrative: writing books or writing articles?


• What's his Souvenir book all about?


• What's the difference between souvenirs and photography.

I recorded this one-hour conversation in 2018 when I was still in Cameroon. Rolf, who is from Kansas, was in New York at the time.

Rolf hosts the Deviate podcast.

iinside is obsessed about the last kilometer at the airport. 

You may use Google Maps, Maps.me, or some other mapping system to figure out how much congestion there is on your way to the airport. 

However, the automobile traffic congestion may not correlate with the congestion inside the airport.

Wouldn't it be nice to know what's going on inside the airport? How long are security checkpoint lines? When will my luggage arrive?

iinside aims to answer those questions.

Sam Kamen is the Chief Operating Officer of iinside, a company that is working to make airports smart.

There are 524 major airports in the United States. The top 30 airports account to 75-80% of all passengers. 

They use lidar technology to track humans and bags to measure congestion within the airport. In 2019, iinside is working with these 4 USA airports:

1. Orlando


2. Phoenix


3. Denver


4. Austin

Whether you're into travel tours or not, you should listen to Travis Pittman, the CEO of TourRadar. 

I've always been skeptical and resistant to tours. I've always preferred independent travel.

Travis makes a pretty convincing argument about why TourRadar is a compelling platform and marketplace. 

TourRadar aggregates 1,000 tour operators with 30,000 different trips all over the globe. 

About 70% of those who book with TourRadar are females, especially solo female travelers.

Group sizes vary from 6 to 50 people.

TourRadar focuses on regions, not cities. For instance, you'd search for Tuscany or Italy, not just Florence. Tours last at least 3 days. The sweet spot for them is about 12 days. So if you only want a tour of Paris, don't use TourRadar. 

Travis reveals:

• How TourRadar makes money.


• What's a common error people make when booking a tour.


• What kind of recourse you have when a tour bombs.


• How he got started.


• How much venture capital TourRadar has taken in.


• What's TourRadar's strategic direction for 2019 and beyond.

This is episode #21.
