Be Organised, if You Can - But You May Require an Alternate Plan
Episode description
The Nostalgic Vagabond this time Zooms, literally a mile away, to connect with special guest, Clay Petrocchi, in Liverpool city centre. In a pre-Covid world, this would be the opportunity to chat face-to-face but social distance restrictions and winter lockdowns meant that tech had to be used.
In this episode, Allan talks with Clay to get the lowdown on his recent, crazy and bizarre adventure where he tried to fly to South Korea to study the language but ended up bouncing through a few European hubs before arriving up in Aruba, the Caribbean and Clay's original home.
Clay shares some of his travel experiences in other destinations too. He talks about some language barriers he experienced living in Italy. He humbly shares of some misunderstandings he discovered while travelling in Dubai and the middle-east. Clay is always learning through experience, "being in a place" to figure out what actually is real, beyond the hype, the propaganda and embellished stories you sometimes hear.
Clay admits his plans don't always work. However, he is always happy to improvise and even try again.
Ironically, the worst connection ever on Zoom came when the distance between host and guest was walkable. Go figure!
