#65 - Shifting the perspective. Robin's long-term travel

In this episode of ON(E)WARDS, I sit down with Robin, a solo
traveler whose journey is all about breaking free, rediscovering
herself, and embracing the joy of long-term travel. After a
breakup in 2023, Robin left behind van life with her partner and
began traveling full-time on her own. From Thailand’s stunning
beaches to Vietnam’s sprawling rice fields, Robin shares how
travel has helped her disconnect from old labels, embrace
freedom, and redefine her purpose.


We dive into big questions like:


Are long-term travelers running away or searching for
themselves?

Do we need labels like “traveler,” or can we just live in the
moment?

How do we balance the pull of adventure with the need for
stability?



Robin’s insights into solo travel, self-discovery, and finding
balance on the road will resonate with seasoned travelers and
dreamers alike. She also shares her journey to inspiring
others—including her mom!—to step out of their comfort zones and
explore the world.


Highlights of this Episode:


Robin’s shift in mindset: from “nothing holds me up” to
“nothing is holding me back”

Why Thailand feels like home and why Bali wasn’t for her
