3000 Miles to Bonnaroo: A Solo Traveler's Experience from Ireland

The What Podcast goes international this week with our special guest, Geraldine from Dublin, Ireland. A devoted Bonnaroo attendee since 2019, Geraldine shares her incredible journey of traveling solo across the Atlantic to experience the festival. From navigating long-haul flights and shuttles to discovering new music and embracing the Bonnaroo community, she gives a unique perspective on what makes the festival so special. We dive into her favorite performances, her approach to accommodations (no camping for her!), and finally we get some tips for solo traveling to Bonnaroo.Also, be sure and join The What Podcast for a special meetup and live episode on The How Stage inside Planet Roo at 4:00 PM on Thursday during Bonnaroo!Listen to the full story about Geraldine's journey to The Farm here, or watch the episode on YouTube.
