Imagine packing your life into a suitcase and stepping into the world as your home. That's the reality for Kate Evans, our remarkable guest who, alongside her husband Dave, traded the predictability of a permanent address for the boundless freedom of a nomadic life. Their story, as chronicled in "Wanderland: Living the Traveling Life," exudes a compelling allure for anyone who's ever dreamed of experiencing the richness of the world beyond the confines of a conventional lifestyle.
Kate Evans, PhD, is the author of eight books, including a duet of memoirs: Wanderland: Living the Traveling Life and Call It Wonder: An Odyssey of Love, Sex, Spirit & Travel, winner of the Bisexual Book Award. Her essays, stories, and poems have appeared widely.
We uncover the strategic planning and serendipitous moments that colour Kate's travels, the emotional landscapes navigated, and how her philosophy of minimalism isn't about having less but living more. Her journey, punctuated by the pages of her book, is a testament to the transformative power of embracing the unknown and the value of experiences over possessions.
This conversation isn't just about globetrotting; it's a deeper dive into the art of storytelling, connecting with others through shared narratives, and the relentless pursuit of personal fulfillment. Kate's insights on the nuances of a nomadic lifestyle and the courage to write one's own story—whether through the lens of a camera, the strokes of a pen, or the steps across unfamiliar lands—resonate with the soul of every aspiring wanderer like me.
Kate and Dave live part of the year in Baja California Sur, Mexico, and they travel the rest of the time.
Let's enjoy her story.
