Emily and Rachel of the Gap Year Diaries Podcast chat to intrepid members of the Hostelworld community about their travel experiences.
In this episode, the hosts speak to Tom Ruck, a self-confessed accident prone traveller about his catalogue of close calls, and Zorro, a seasoned traveller and hostel worker about when things haven’t quite gone to plan for him during his four years on the road. We hear about vengeful rats, falling horribly ill in the Amazon rainforest and having to scale a glacier alone in the Himalayas, as well as top tips and advice for keeping a cool head when disaster strikes far from home. Oh, and a smattering of ridiculous stories from Emily and Rachel throughout of course.
