The Indie Travel Podcast

This week Craig and Linda talk about taking hard-drives on the road with you. Who on earth wants to carry that extra weight? Listen to find out! We admit to being that person and follow up with a review of the LaCie Rugged All-Terrain hard disk.

This week Craig and Linda at the Indie Travel Podcast turn their attention to the Joby Gorillapod; an innovative camera tripod. The gorillapod differs from normal tripods by having legs made out of interconnected spheres which can be manipulated to wrap around all sorts of things.

FREE BOOK. Craig and Linda review Vagabonding: An uncommon guide to the art of long-term world travel by Rolf Potts then offer to give it away. For free. Just leave a review for us in the iTunes store, then email us to let us know that you did so.

That subtitle is one heck of a mouthful, huh? It sums the book up well though.

In short, it wasn’t our type of book. The layout was frustratingly fragmented, with quotes, profiles and tips scattered throughout the pages (see picture). Linda moans while Craig points out it’s how motivational books are published these days.

We’d recommend this book to people that are sitting on the fence when it comes to a lifestyle of travel. If you’re sitting at home or at work, dreaming of travelling then this book is for you.

Craig and Linda bring light to the travel community with their review of the Maglite two AA battery torch. It’s not cheap or overly light, but it lends itself to travel for three main reasons. Then again, do you really need a torch? Think about how to pack light - take what you will use, not what you might use.
