travel around the world

Bobby Bolton is a British chap who’s embarked on an epic journey to drive his converted truck from the UK to Australia with his faithful companion Red (his dog) by his side - in an adventure he's titled 'One Life Truck It'

Following some traumatic events in his private life, he made the decision that a change was needed and the plan to convert his truck and head to Oz was born over a few beers. A matter of months later, he was on the road and the adventures began.

Now a foursome, Bobby and Marie, together with their dogs Red and Rubia, are continuing the dream overland travel adventure as they work their way to Australia - and who knows where else!

One of the amazing things about traveling and living abroad is the people you meet in random, chance, and fleeting encounters. Even if you just chat at the airport for 5 minutes or run into someone at a café, you form these deep, meaningful connections that stay with you for life.  

One of those chance encounters occurred for me in the little mountain spa town of Fortuna in Costa Rica. I walked down into the lobby of my backpacker’s lodge one day and saw this tall European woman struggling to walk because she’d injured her knee badly in a surfing accident. 

Being everyone’s big brother when I travel, my first instinct was to help her out, of course, and that’s how I met Rafaela, who turned out to be one of the smartest, most positive, and dynamic people I’ve been blessed to know.  

From humble yet gracious beginnings in Communist Romania, she worked her way up in finance, moved abroad to work in other European nations, speaks six languages, and now lives in Paris. 

I met Rafaela in the midst of her year traveling around the world, when she focused on reading, exercise, yoga, and fully immersing herself in the moment. But far from your typical stereotypical backpacker, she carried a nice suitcase and told me she loved the high heels that she packed instead of the typical hiking boots - a true sophisticated badass!

After months of invitations (and begging), Rafaela finally acquiesced and agreed to hop on the podcast with me, which turned out to be one of my favorite conversations yet!  

Set in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, this is a story about a chance encounter, a night spent drinking beers under the Chinese lanterns of China Town, a three years journey and the convergence of four destinies …
