This show is what we call a Podswap, and it's a great one with Mark Arinsberg from Citizen 44. Mark has kindly allowed me to share the interview with you.
I am the guest this time, and with Mark's skills as an interviewer he is able to draw out lots of things about ourselves and Vietnam you may be surprised to find out about: Including how we navigated our way through Covid and came out the other side, still whole and more in love with Vietnam.
If you'd like to really get to the bottom of what both Mark and I love about Vietnam, this is the show to find out. As a guest I get to talk freely about my recent trip and some of the encouraging things about that trip I hope will help guide your future travels.
Mark also interviews his girlfriend on the show, and in that section you'll find out how by changing to a vegan diet one man has been healed from a serious illness.
This show officially belongs to Citizen 44, so there will be no Transcript, but I do have some time stamps here that may help guide you through the show and key subjects you may find interesting.
