In this episode of The Radio Vagabond, I visit Sri Lanka and walk across rice fields down to a river where a “catamaran canoe” took me across, I then arrived at a small house with a grass roof.

A few days ago, I published an episode about Elk Horn, and in that one I told a story about some Danish immigrants. Here I also had a song created by AI about their story. I played small bits of it in the episode, but a few of you have written to me, asking to hear the entire song. Well, of course. While I’m working on the next episode from Elk Horn, here it is…

If you haven’t heard the episode from Elk Horn yet, do that now. Not only am I telling the story about Christian and Mary and how they ended up here in Elk Horn, but I also meet the locals and visit their biggest attraction: an old Danish Windmill that was taken apart and sent to this small Midwestern town. It’s a fascinating story.

In the next one, I will explore this Danish-American settlement more.

My name is Palle Bo, and I gotta keep moving. See you.

My flight from Chicago touches down in Managua in the afternoon and after a 45-minute drive to Granada, I arrive at my next home. It’s a called Paraiso Granada.

The next two and a half weeks I’m staying in a wonderful apartment here in the center of Granada.

This episode was recorded last week on a road trip I did in Kirgizstan with my good friend, Cynthia. We’ve done this before when we did another drive through Saudi Arabia. It’s basically about choosing between two travel related bucket list things – and a great way of getting to talk about travel.

This time we’ve asked ChatGPT to give us the questions:

Would you rather:

… hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru or the Torres del Paine Circuit in Chile?

… take a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia in Turkey or watch the Northern Lights from a glass igloo in Finland?

… camp under the stars in Wadi Rum desert in Jordan or in the Sahara Desert in Morocco?

… attend the Rio Carnival in Brazil or the Holi Festival of Colours in India?

… visit the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt or the Moai statues on Easter Island in Chile?

… explore the fjords of New Zealand or the Scottish Highlands?

… take a scenic train ride through the Swiss Alps or the Rocky Mountains in Canada?

I hope you will play along. Let me know what you think of what we say in the comments on Facebook or YouTube.

I’ll be ready with a regular travel episode next Tuesday.
