As Told By Nomads

Nathaniel Boyle is an explorer addicted to new things, travel optimist, and frequent flyer mile collector who’s circumnavigated the globe and been chased by dogs in only four different countries. He loves hunting for well-crafted coffee and beer, and street food. He also loves design, filmmaking, writing novels, and stories of every kind. Travel, for him, is about exercising imagination, creating stories, and building one's legend. He has been to thirty countries across five continents, lived and worked in New Zealand, ridden the Transsiberian, stayed with nomads in Mongolia, jumped out of airplanes and swam with sharks. But he feels like he has only scratched the surface. For more show notes please head over to www.uydmag.com/podcast/nathaniel-boyle  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
