After leaving Denmark at age 50, Palle has now visited 127 countries and evolved from fast-paced travel to a more intentional, slow travel lifestyle—recently establishing a base in Chiang Mai while continuing to explore the world. He reflects on how immersive travel and local relationships challenge assumptions, reshape perspectives, and reveal the deep similarities between people across cultures. Palle also takes us behind the scenes of his podcast, The Radio Vagabond, explaining how field recordings and spontaneous conversations with locals create powerful human stories—and how travel podcasting opens doors to experiences most travelers never access. Along the way, he shares insights on staying connected while living abroad, navigating aging as a digital nomad, and why some of the most meaningful moments on the road begin with simply saying yes. → Full show notes with direct links to everything discussed are available here. ============================ FIND YOUR NEXT EPISODE Explore The Maverick Show Starter Packs — some of my favorite conversations curated by theme so you can easily find the episodes that match your interests. ============================ FREE RESOURCES FOR YOU See my Top 10 Travel Apps See my Top 10 Books that Shaped the Way I Travel See my 7 Keys For Building A Remote Business (Even in a space that’s not traditionally virtual) Watch my Video Training on Stylish Minimalist Packing so you can join #TeamCarryOn See the Travel Gear I Use and Recommend See How I Produce The Maverick Show Podcast (The equipment, services & vendors I use) ============================ ENJOYING THE SHOW?
