Cześć again from Kraków, Poland! Welcome to the second instalment of my visit to one of my new favourite Eastern European cities. If you missed Part I of my time in Kraków then go back and listen to get up-to-date with what I am doing and why I am here. I pick up where I left off, speaking with my new friend and Walkative! tour guide, Thomasz – a giant among tour guides here in Kraków. Literally… he’s more than 2 meters tall. DENMARK AT FIFA WORLD CUP Before I let him go, we had to talk a bit ab...

WITAMY W KRAKOWIE Since recording my last episode from Slovenia , I visited a few places in Europe on business which is why I decided not to post any episodes from that time. But just to keep you updated on my recent whereabouts: I’ve been recording interviews for the follow-up to the first season of The LEGO Technic podcast . In the first season we chart the journey of the design and build of a 1-8 scale Lego model of the Bugatti Chiron in 9 episodes. And in the second season for The LEGO Group...

Pozdravi from Slovenia! To kick-off my visit, I decided to take a free walking tour of the capital city of Ljubljana . I always enjoy walking tours in each city I travel to as they’re a really cool way to get more familiar with the area and its history. The tour guide spoke English very well and had a good sense of humour which made the walk through the small city highly enjoyable. We visited Ljubljana’s famous Triple Bridge and caught the sights and sounds of the cosy and car-less city centre. ...

DOBRO DOŠLI U HRVATSKU Let me recap my Balkan road trip so far… I started in Albania , then I went to Kosovo , Montenegro , Bosnia and Herzegovina and now, I’ve arrived in Croatia. If you haven’t heard the other episodes from this region, I suggest you go back and do that too. Croatia is a country in Southern Europe with a fascinating history, cultures, and a lot of incredible outdoor attractions and historic monuments. The capital is Zagreb and the official language is Croatian – that is not th...

See pictures here . DOBRO DOŠLI U MOSTAR Again, I go by bus to my next Balkan destination. This time north from Kotor in Montenegro to Mostar in the southern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina . It was one of the other guests at the hostel in Kosovo – an English guy called Edward, that recommended Mostar and Rooms Deny to me. There’s a river that runs through Mostar from the north to the south and cuts the city in two halves. Deny, the owner of ‘ Rooms Deny ’, the hostel I’d booked, came to pick me ...

Zdravo! In the last episode of the Radio Vagabond, I was in Prizren Kosovo . From there I took a 300km bus ride west to my next destination, Montenegro ! It was a country I had never seen before and the trip took me back through Albania which borders this small but beautiful land. Before I get into the details of this leg of my trip, I must say that travelling by bus through the Balkans is a great way to get from place to place in this region. The bus is nice, it’s easy and best of all it’s rela...

Tungjatjeta from Kosovo! After an unexpectedly amazing time in Albania , my next stop was Kosovo - one of the youngest countries in Europe. As you know, my goal is to visit every UN Nation in the world, so technically Kosovo isn’t on my list. But my travels are not just about ticking off items on my list, it’s about embarking on adventures. And seeing as I was so close, I simply had to visit - and I was not disappointed at all!

Përshëndetje for the last time from Albania! As I mentioned before, Albania is a country that I didn’t expect much from initially but it turned out to be pretty amazing. If you want to know why I enjoy this place so much then be sure to listen to Part I and II if you haven’t already - it’s worth it :) A big part of why I enjoyed Albania so much is because I connected with Adam - a really great guy who works in the travel industry and took time to show me around. I would also like to mention that...

PËRSHËNDETJE AGAIN FROM ALBANIA! It’s another day in the Albanian capital of Tirana and I am about to meet Adam and Elira Kadriu, a journalist from the Albanian online media and TV channel, Dritare , at the luxurious Tirana International Hotel. You might recall from Part I that Adam joked he would make me famous...and it looks like he might have been serious! We met in the outside café of the hotel and while the TV crew was setting up their lights and cameras, Adam finally let me in on what was ...

Përshëndetje from Albania! After my incredible journey aboard Nomad Cruise, it was time to get back to reality. Sadly, I was unable to join my fellow nomads in Santorini for a post-cruise reunion as I had already booked my trip to the Balkans, but I promised myself I would hang around after my next Nomad Cruise - yes, I was sure there was going to be a next one. So, after a sad ‘nomad goodbye’ in Athens, I hopped on a flight headed to a country that had previously never featured high on my bucke...

This special bonus episode will so much meta on so many levels. Let me start by rewinding about a year back. I was approached by someone who was in the process of starting a brand-new radio station in the UK. The plan was to build their programming around good podcasts from around the world. And they said that they would like to have The Radio Vagabond on the program. I thought it sounded quite exciting and different – so I said I was in. And right from the launch of the radio station in Februar...
