#16 Marko Remes (The Runaway Bride)

Send us a text

Run, Tina, Run! This episode features THE BEST STORY we've ever had on TFTDL so far. The fabulous Marko Remes (Edith Cowan University Australia) recounts an unbelievably crazy tale in Tunisia and we cannot believe our ears. 

Not one to shy away from the limelight, Marko is a natural orator who also takes us on a eloquent journey to Finland during summer solstice including sauna etiquette (whipping and beer), introduces us to his legendary Eurovision parties and the cha-cha-challenges of feeling like a nobody in a foreign country. 

Full transparency, Marko had another, even crazier story that we couldn't include! Gutted. If you see him on your travels, buy him a drink and maybe he will tell you off-the-record - otherwise we will get him back on to tell all when the time is right. Patience is a virtue. 

Final boarding call: Finland
