Ayyyy welcome back to your fave travel podcast. Thanks for tuning in and getting yourself ready to make some MOVES with me. Let's get it!In Season 4 Episode 8, I am joined by Valentin- a 23-year-old medical student from Munich with a growing passion for exploring the world at a human pace. Though he’s only been studying medicine for a year, some of his greatest lessons have come from the road. Last year, Valentin traveled from Germany all the way to Timor-Leste, a journey spanning over 13,000 kilometers (8,077 miles) — and he did it entirely without taking a single flight.His route took him through the heart of Central Asia and the Middle East, crossing borders that many travelers only ever read about. From Europe into Turkey, through the deserts and ancient cities of Iran, across the rugged landscapes of Pakistan, and into Afghanistan, Valentin continued moving east — guided by curiosity, trust, and the belief that the world is far more nuanced than the headlines suggest. Ferries, buses, trains, shared taxis, hitchhiking — every transition became a story in itself.For Valentin, travel is not just about seeing places, but about seeing himself more clearly. The road became a mirror. The people who welcomed him, the uncertainty of not knowing what comes next, and the slow passage of time all shaped his understanding of who he is and how he wants to move through the world.
