The World Awaits: travel tales to inspire your wanderlust
EP 62 How to live a nomadic life; Intrepid's ‘not-hot’ list & what time should you really get to the airport?
Living a nomadic life; the ‘not-hot’ list and airport departure times
Have you ever dreamt of packing it all in and travelling the world? That’s what Tim and Sharyn Nilsen have done and the only retirement plans they have are to keep ticking off the list of countries they visit – well, those that are left.
This week, Sharyn gives some great advice as to how you can do it too.

We also cover Intrepid Travel’s ‘not-hot’ list, a reaction against overtourism. These are their top picks of the best lesser-known places you need to have on your radar (intrepidtravel.com/au/newsroom/releases/intrepid-releases-2025-not-hot-list) and we have the great debate about what time you should arrive at the airport.
