In this episode, we reminisce about how much we have learnt about Malaysian food over the years. From our first visit to Malaysia in 2014 to having spent over 6 months in Malaysia up to 2019, we now have a wonderful appreciation for the diversity of Malaysian food and particularly for the many sweet Malaysian desserts, also known as Kuih. Take a look at our blog articles for Malaysian food photos and descriptions: https://www.wewillnomad.com/post/malaysian-cuisine https://www.wewillnomad.com/post/malay-sweet-treats-you-should-try And watch us enjoying night market food in Malaysia and trying as many Malaysian desserts as we can in Penang: LANGKAWI NIGHT MARKET | MALAYSIA (WeWillNomad) - YouTube  George Town, PENANG Street Art & Food Tasting + Gurney Drive Hawker Food Market (WeWillNomad) - YouTube   Please take a moment and leave us a review and rating on Apple Podcasts (or your preferred podcast provider).

In this episode, we look back at  2019, the first calendar year we were fully nomadic and spent travelling across Asia. We visited 8 countries, slept in 50 different beds and took numerous flights, trains, busses and boats during this year! Currently, in stark contrast, we still find ourselves stuck in the worldwide COVID-19 lockdown after almost an entire year, so we enjoy reflecting on our 2019 travels. Quick summary of our year. How we choose our next destination and the cool new tool we created to do this (https://www.wewillnomad.com/where-to-travel-next). How we deal with money and tracking expenses while travelling. Packing for full-time travel: Items we should have packed but didn't & items we ditched along the way. Social media and how it influences travel. Technology and our best travel apps. Our pace of travel, actual vs preferred. Keeping fit on the road. Some First Time Experiences. What we learnt from our first year as full-time nomads.

Mount Bromo is probably Indonesia’s most famous active volcano and sits at the Eastern end of Java between Surabaya and Yogyakarta. It's part of the Tengger massif and in the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park.  Kawah Ijen. A beast of a volcano, just shy of 3000 meters, will leave you gasping. Not only for air but also for a truly unique experience. It's home to the largest acidic lake in the world measuring only 0.7ph (with battery acid being 1ph!). Java is only the fourth largest island in Indonesia but contains more than half of the nation’s population and dominates it politically and economically. The capital of Java and of the country is Jakarta (formerly Batavia), which is also Indonesia’s largest city. If you're looking for inspiration on what to see and do in Java, you've come to the right place! In this episode, we dive deep into how to go about visiting the famous volcanoes of Java: 1. When were we there and for how long; 2. Our reason for going; 3. Highlight or standout experience; 4. Transport around; 5. Challenges; 6. Budget; 7.

We weren’t quite prepared for how much we would love Yogyakarta and somewhat regret spending only a few days there. Nevertheless, we made the most of our time and now have a place we would like to revisit on our return to Indonesia! Yogyakarta - often called simply ‘Jogja’ (Y’s are pronounced like J’s in Bahasa), shares the name of the capital city of Jakarta yet they could not be more different! Jakarta has over nine million people in its hazy underbelly – interspersed with skyscraper malls and some of the most congested traffic you will find anywhere in the world. While Jogja retains a calmer soul, is culturally rich in ancient Javanese arts and home to less than half a million inhabitants. Yogyakarta today is home to the nation’s most prestigious university, a well-established art & music scene and picturesque landscape.  Java is only the fourth largest island in Indonesia but contains more than half of the nation’s population and dominates it politically and economically. The capital of Java and of the country is Jakarta (formerly Batavia), which is also Indonesia’s largest city. If you're looking for inspiration on what to see and do in Java, you've come to the right place!  As Yogyakarta is synonymous with both Prambanan and Borobudur Temples we include our experience and recommendations on both these magnificent temples.  In this episode we discuss: 1. When were we in Yogyakarta and for how long; 2. Prambanan Temple  3. Borobudur Temple  4. Highlight and standout experience; 5. What the weather is like; 6. Food; 7. Must-See & Do ; 8. Transport and getting around; 9. Budget; 10.

Thinking of visiting Lombok, Indonesia? If you're looking for inspiration on what to see and do in Lombok, you've come to the right place!  The Gili’s, together with Mt Rinjani, are Lombok's most famous icons and are consistently rated among the top destinations in South East Asia by travellers and travel publications. Every year the Gili’s attract tens of thousands of visitors from around the world to their pristine waters, great diving and laid-back charm. However, the lesser-visited main island of Lombok has no lack of its own stunning beaches and scenery. The south of Lombok especially has a wonderfully laid-back lifestyle, almost year-round sunshine - as well as for some of the best surf breaks in Indonesia!

In this episode, we talk about our very first volunteering (Workaway) experience. We spent three weeks volunteering our time at an Eco Jungle Camp at the northernmost tip of Borneo. If you’re considering volunteering or a Workaway experience, this discussion might help shed some light on what to expect. We discuss the following aspects: How our opportunity came about and why we considered doing it. Where we volunteered and what our tasks and responsibilities were. Did volunteering turn out as we expected? The good and the bad of our volunteering experience. Is volunteering for you? Would we do it again?

In this episode, we discuss various approaches and techniques to enable you to stay fit while travelling as well as touch on the importance of combining your exercise regime with a good diet. We have been full-time nomads for 2 years now and we share our experiences of what has and what hasn’t worked for us over the past two years. FITNESS: Benefits of being fit when you’re on the road. Being motivated to exercise regularly. The challenges of a changing environment. Overall health and well-being while you travel. Going for a regular run. Blog post - How to train yourself to run 5kms Yoga - Use an app like DownDog. High-intensity training and bodyweight workouts. Establishing a routine and sticking to it. Be mindful of bad habits and make better choices. Wear a fitness tracker to measure progress and monitor routine. EATING: Eating well is easy if you have an unlimited budget. Why your diet is more important than exercising. Track what you eat to hold yourself accountable and keep you honest. Should breakfast be the most important meal? Choosing the right food and avoiding bad habits. Cut out the obvious culprits such as refined carbohydrate and sugary foods. Fruit juices and smoothies are really bad. Avoid alcohol as much as you can.  Don’t miss out of the odd spoil but don’t eat two bad meals in a row. Keeping a food log using Instagram is fun and will help to keep you accountable.

In this episode, we interview our friend, Jason and ask him all about his experience visiting Antarctica as part of a SANAE overwintering team. Although we hardly stuck to this list we touched on: Why he went to Antarctica? Daily routine and practical matters like taking a shower. Sharing a confined space for 15 months with the same 9 people. Highs and lows of the experience. Cooking and eating from a limited selection of ingredients for more than a year. Why there are no Polar Bears in Antarctica. What to do to keep yourself entertained. Does it take a certain type of person to do this?

In this episode, we discuss our Top 10 Things to See and Do in PENANG. The Island of Penang is just off the West Coast of Malaysia and is actually connected to the mainland by two long bridges. We had previously visited shortly in 2014 and now spent the full month of July 2019 staying just outside of Georgetown, Penang. We enjoyed the fact that Penang is both modern, fantastically practical and functional, and yet still has so much culture and historical authenticity.

Want some inspiration for your visit to Seoul, South Korea? In this episode, we discuss our Top 10 Things to See and Do in SEOUL. With a population of approximately 10 million people, we expected Seoul to be like any other big city - bustling and impersonal. We were however pleasantly surprised with just how laid back the city can feel and also how relaxing and peaceful all the wonderful green public open spaces are, nestled between the busier city streets. The 5 days that we spent in Seoul went by in a flash and we definitely hope to return to explore more of what this vibrant city has to offer.

In this episode, we discuss our Top 10 Things to See and Do in TAIPEI. The capital of Taiwan is often the first stop on many a tourist trail through Taiwan and when we visited in April of 2019, we were pleasantly surprised with just how much Taipei has to offer. We found the city to be both modern, wonderfully functional, inviting and yet still retaining so much authenticity and old school charm.
