198 - Driving the Alps: A German Road Trip

In this special travel episode of The Barn Philosopher, Shelby and Rita record from the road as they wind their way through the breathtaking Alps of southern Germany. With Rita behind the wheel and Shelby enjoying the view from the passenger seat, the conversation turns to what it's like driving some of Europe's narrow, winding mountain roads. They talk about sharing the road with motorcycles carving through the curves, the surprising courtesy of most German drivers, and the occasional speedster who seems determined to test the limits. It's a shorter episode, recorded in the moment while taking in incredible scenery and another unforgettable day on their European adventure. Sometimes the best conversations happen when there's no destination in mind—just a beautiful road ahead. Join Shelby and Rita as they continue their German journey one mountain pass, one curve, and one conversation at a time. If you've ever found that the drive can be just as memorable as the destination, share this episode with a fellow road trip enthusiast.
