#41 Kent Foster | I chose flexibility and being free of any rigid dogmas

Konnichiwa - and great to have you listening to episode 41 of my
podcast. In this interview you will get to know Kent Foster, whom I
met on the Japanese Island Ishigaki just a few days ago. Kent was
born in San Francisco and when asking him his for profession, he
says “I am a traveler”. And this since 1986! In these decades
traveling, he has had chest pains in Zimbabwe, giardia in Nepal,
heat exhaustion in India, food poisoning in Burma and has suffered
through operations in Vietnam and Hungary. In between, Kent is
working for high tech companies in Silicon Valley - e.g. at Yahoo -
which allows him to travel and to compensate for lost money from a
pickpocket in Turkey, speeding tickets in Costa Rica, Australia or
Czech Republic. In this adventurous talk Kent shares his believes
on the special things in live only showing when you are open to
them, which could mean not to have the perfect finalized plan when
taking off. You will hear why he enjoys it so much living somewhere
for a year, understanding people and culture and live like the
locals do. Listen to how he started this traveler life and freed
himself – physically and mentally - from so many things, giving him
flexibility and freedom without ever regretting any taken decision.
Why finding your own path requires not being afraid to take some
risks, how he makes it through moments of doubt and why traveling
does not have to be expensive – all this and more you’ll hear now –
so get ready to listen to some personal adventures! **** Are you
