We also chat about how we met (it's a wild one!), the importance of stories & appreciating history, & why the Irish put vinegar on chips (thick fries).Travelling through Life: A Podcast on the Go is a fun & quirky show from Travel with TMc that delves into all things travel & adventures from the road, in the air, & in between here and there.
