A few weeks ago, I was invited by Brock (of the new RTW travel blog Backpack with Brock) to speak on Guy Talk, a radio show on Toronto’s NewsTalk 1010.

The subject?

Long term travel, and why more guys aren’t taking their trip of a lifetime.

The first 15 minutes are a great introduction to Brock’s trip around the world which began earlier this month in New Zealand.  Then, I join the conversation in the second segment, and we even get a long distance call-in from Nancy of  Family on Bikes (who was using Skype all the way down in Ecuador!).

Thanks for posting this, I enjoyed the radio show. Nancy's “Family on Bikes” idea is especially intriguing and might be a growing trend. Also, the cage diving sounds incredible. Do you have a post written about that experience?
