Wanderlust: Travel Stories and More

How are you? What’s going on? I was thinking about you when I took the dogs for a walk this morning and wanted to see what you’re up to. I’m moving up to Colorado this week for the next four or five months. Working as a campground host again. I’m also trying to get this new teaching platform off the ground and running. I’m on Skool,sending out daily prompts and suggestions all about unblocking creativity. So, in case you’re up for it, have a look. Here’s the basic info that I use on the about page: “If you want to finish that novel, practice your guitar regularly, start a new project but can’t quite get it together, I can help you work out why, what’s stopping you, and how to get back to doing what you love.”You know it’s my thing, sharing what I’ve tried and liked so this brings it all together in one place. Hopefully it’ll allow me to teach, be part of a creative cohort, and still travel around like I do. Fingers crossed. Join us if you’d like. Onwards and upwards! I’d really like to be able to spread the word about this chance to get creative again. So please share it to anyone you think might appreciate being part of a small group, all working on our projects and holding each other accountable to the assignments I offer! Thanks again for being part of my world, take care. https://www.skool.com/explore-create-share-8023/about Get full access to Stories, Art, and Travels at sarahleamy.substack.com/subscribe

In today’s episode, you’ll hear an excerpt from ON MEXICAN TIME by Tony Cohan, written in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico 1985. That lead me to introduce another author, one I’ve met whilst in Baja California early in 2022, a funny fella and quite the slow and steady wanderer, Graham MackIntosh. I talk about the different types of travel writing, from trip reports, articles, blogs and long and far-reaching memoirs etc. You’ll also hear from Kristen Van Tassel, published on the Wanderlust website, and it’s her travel vignette, a moment on a bus in Mexico. https://wanderlust-journal.com/2021/10/19/border-crossing-by-bus/Music by Sofia Nehama Avery: https://nehamamusic.comTo find out more about your host and her own writing and adventures: https://sarahleamy.comTo read the cartoon version of my experiences as a campground host, get a copy here: https://www.amazon.com/Camphost-Diaries-Sarah-Leamy/dp/B0DFTRQJPPExcuse the reference to episode numbers as I’ve since imported this podcast from another platform.
