The Pursuit of Feeling

• Episode 10 – Ash Bhardwaj’s life-long journey to understand “why” we travel

  In this episode, Tom spoke to journalist and author Ash Bhardwaj; whose award-winning book, Why we Travel, takes an impassioned look at the psychology behind the journeys we take – going far beyond the "where" to examine the much more complicated question of "why".It’s a heartfelt conversation that covers identity, wonder, healing, and the many, variegated forms of “fun” – from experiences that we only enjoy in retrospect to those that throw us in a total flow state. You’ll also find Ash’s quickfire travel recommendations; probably not including the time he was detained by the KGB in Belarus.

• Episode 6 – “Can I tell you something scary?” – with Jacqui Gifford, editor-in-chief of Travel + Leisure

  For our latest episode, we're joined by Jacqui Gifford – the intimidatingly well-travelled editor-in-chief of Travel + Leisure. She has lived, worked, and written about so much of the world, and that spirit of worldliness was reflected in our conversation. We spoke about chimpanzees, childhood, cosmopolitanism, and comfort zones – and much, much more. In Jacqui’s words, travel can make us hyper-aware of our surroundings. And it is precisely this intensified feeling of awareness that is what makes travel so alive – and so seriously captivating. We hope you enjoy listening.
