Are you the type of traveler that avoids crowded tourist destinations at all costs?
Accomplished author and globe trotter, Gunnar Garfors, shares his experience and wisdom gained from seeking out the road less traveled and writing a book about the hidden secrets of his home country Norway.
If you’re curious to learn more about how curiosity and adaptability can help you achieve a one-of-a-kind adventure experience, you don’t want to miss this episode.
What is the most memorable travel experience that led you somewhere unexpected? I’d love to hear about it and hope you will share by sending me an audio message.
