It was so cool to chop it up with Leah and get an insiders view of what exploring in South East Asia is actually like. The flooded mall? Not a thing. Dropping a little cash to walk through someones home to see a bando circus theatre? A thing. Learn about sacred geometry and getting out a jam when your driver leaves you in the middle of nowhere.

Join us as we talk with Leah. In this episode, we dive into her experiences exploring abandoned places in Asia, searching for a massive statue of Shiva, temples, malls, and an amusement park overtaken by nature. Listen to her shrug off motorbike accidents and getting stranded in rural Thailand. Learn about how some people are making a few bhat by living in a house connected to a bando.
