011 | Eli Snyder - Traveling to the Most “Dangerous” Countries in the World
Hi friends. Today I sit down with Eli Snyder, a man from my home town in Kansas who has made it his mission to visit every country in the world. What stands out most isn’t the number of countries he’s visited (+100), it’s how he’s doing it. Eli has chosen the road less traveled, immersing himself in places most western travelers wouldn’t dare to go, and doing it with humility, curiosity, and a real respect for the people & cultures he encountered along the way.
Whether he’s hiking through northern Afghanistan or leading a small group through the mountains of Albania, the work is the same.. To live & learn as a local.
In this episode, we talk about how Eli made the leap from corporate life to full-time exploration, what he’s learned through solitude and discomfort, and why he believes meaning lives in the places most people overlook. We get into some of his favorite (& scariest) stories from the road, the responsibility of documenting cultures that aren’t your own, how his group expeditions came to life, and a few of his go-to travel hacks.
We’re not in Kansas anymore (:
Big Love, Luke
