It's called the WanderLearn podcast for a reason. It wanders all over the place from travel destinations to cryptocurrencies to politics. It's always insightful and funny.

Unconventional Podcast
 Jun 8, 2021
Francis Tapon is unafraid of saying what he thinks even if it is politically incorrect. This is not just a travel podcast. it's a podcast about thinking unconventionally.

This podcast is not just about travel. It covers a wide range of topics, but it is always fun and informative to listen to. It's my favorite podcast out there and I look forward to its weekly content!

Description

Take a profound and distant journey. Call it Deep Travel, Immersive Travel, Slow Travel, or Vagabonding. Francis Tapon guides you to the intersection of travel, technology, and transformation. The podcast will compel you to go beyond your comfort zone. Occasionally, you‘ll also delve into the misunderstood world of cryptocurrencies.
