Episode 3665:
Jacob Lund Fisker challenges conventional wisdom on travel by questioning its true value beyond consumerism and social status. He argues that living abroad and developing useful skills offer far deeper personal growth and perspective than typical tourism. Discover why meaningful experiences come not from collecting destinations but from immersing yourself in new cultures and responsibilities.

Quotes to ponder:
“Having been to the other side of the world no longer means braving mountain ranges, running out of food, or being chased by bandits.”
“I highly recommend living abroad though out of which traveling is a very very small part, that is, a couple of days of getting there vs a few years or more of being there.”
“To see the world, get the skills first, then travel. Not the other way around.”
