We’re Ella and Mary—two former guides with an insatiable love for the open road and the extraordinary people we meet along the way. This is our podcast dedicated to celebrating those gloriously imperfect travel moments when things go sideways, and something even better unfolds. Surrounded by a global community of guides and adventurers, we realized we were sitting on a goldmine of stories begging to be shared. So we created this platform as a space to share the stories that remind us why we explore in the first place: to be surprised, to be humbled, and to connect.
