Travel stories, humor, music, purpose. Twenty years ago, Jay Schneider strapped on an overstuffed backpack and headed off to wander around South East Asia and the Indian sub-continent with a goal of traveling until the money ran out. In Season 1, Jay remembers, relives and reflects upon this journey, reading journal entries and e-mail updates he sent to friends and family. Much like his time on the road, this podcast journey takes Jay to unexpected places, as he unpacks (unpacks--see what we did there?) what it means to explore the world, be open to misadventure and maintain a traveler's mindset, even when not traveling. In Seasons 2 and beyond, Jay talks with other globe-trekking adventurers to hear their stories of travel asking them Where, When, How, and--most importantly--Why they travel. Presented by Honey Roasted T-Shirts: https://www.honeyroastedtshirts.com Season 1 countries: Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Taiwan, Nepal and India.

After an incredible few days exploring Angkor Wat and the temples around Siem Reap, it's time for Jay to catch a boat South to Phnom Penh. Choosing to ride on top of the boat to enjoy the sunny day and the gorgeous views of the Tonle Sap River, Jay realizes two things: (1) Cambodia is a beautiful country, and (2) he really should have used sunscreen on his very white and very exposed legs. The pain of his sunburned legs is soon forgotten as Jay spends three amazing weeks working on a volunteer project at the Peaceful Children's Home at Sre Ampil. Warning: in this episode, Jay begins to question the purpose of travel and why we do it--or why we do anything at all. The first of many "purpose" rants.
