WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life

El Camino de Santiago has 10 benefits, 4 things that are either good or bad depending on your perspective, and 10 sucky things about it.
In this episode, I read my most popular article and interject commentary.
The article has over 3 million views because it appears in the Top 10 results whenever you Google "El Camino Santiago."
Sorry for the 1-month hiatus. I'll be pumping out more episodes to make up for the missed podcasts!
Question of the WeekYida asks:
I'm reading about Rwanda right now. I'm wondering whether you ever went gorilla trekking there?
I'm also curious about the economics of safari tourism in Africa. A gorilla permit in Rwanda is $1500 US while the GDP per capital there is only about $800 US! Safari adventures for foreigners cost a lot compared to what locals spend. But hiking and camping for leisure also seem to be more of a North American thing and not universal.
Do locals go on much cheaper packages available for citizens only if they ever want to see wildlife?
