A sampling of resources that I bookmarked throughout the journey to spend more time with, including how you can conduct your own walk & talk, a structure that Kevin Kelly and Craig Mod have mastered.

1. A public recap of some of our adventure from Craig Mod
2. How to conduct your own Walk and Talk (downloadable version)
3. Kevin Kelly on This American Life telling his story of living for 6 months as if he were dying. This is really incredibly moving and a must-listen.
4. A TED Talk on Notre-Dame’s incredible reconstruction
5. Born to Run; the book about Mexico’s Tarahumara tribe and how humans may be literally built to run; the differentiator between us and other species
6. Kevin’s musings on Amish Hackers, the Whole Earth catalog
7. Interesting museums, like the Miniature Museum in Japan or the Tile Museum in Lisbon

After an invite to walk the Camino from Kevin Kelly, Steph and Cal ended up on an unplanned month in Portugal, Morocco, France, and Spain. In this episode, we cover cruising the Portuguese coast in search of surf and the less-touristy towns beyond Lisbon and Porto, Cal's solo surf mission through Morocco, and why Basque Country, with its its world-class food, charm, and surf became one of our new favorite places.

In Part 3 of our East Africa series, Steph and Cal walk through how they'd plan a trip to East Africa after spending 26 days across Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda. We cover when to go, how to think about safari (luxury, budget, or somewhere in between), gorilla trekking logistics in Rwanda, which non-safari stops were worth it (and which weren't), and practical tips on visas, packing, and money. If a trip to Africa feels off-limits or overwhelming to plan, this one is for you.
