Winging It Travel Podcast

The Winging It Travel Podcast is your weekly ticket to the world—dropping every Monday and hosted by me, James Hammond, proudly part of the Voyascape Network.

This is more than just a travel podcast—it's a cinematic audio experience that takes you deep into the heart of each journey. Through rich immersive soundscapes, on-the-ground reactions, and authentic storytelling, I bring you right alongside me—whether I’m hiking up volcanoes in Guatemala, navigating the chaos of a city market in India, or camping under the stars in British Columbia.

With over fifteen years of travel behind me, I've met incredible people, seen breathtaking places, and collected unforgettable stories—and now I get to share them with you. Expect a mix of:

🎧 Immersive-Audio episodes that let you hear the world as I experience it
🎙️ Raw, reflective solo episodes filled with insights, tips, and honest travel tales
🌍 Guest conversations with some of the most diverse and well-travelled people I've encountered on the road

Every episode blends anecdotes, practical advice, cultural insight, and moments of pure adventure. This podcast is for travellers, dreamers, backpackers, and anyone who’s ever thought, what if I just went for it?

So, if you're looking for stories to tell, tips to share, and experiences to inspire, you're in the right place.

There’s so much travel content coming your way, it just might spark that trip you’ve been dreaming about for years.

Welcome to a world of travel! Thank you for listening in. Please get in touch with us below.

Finally, please rate the podcast five stars on your podcast app and give a positive written review. This helps the podcast grow, for free.
