On this episode of 'the Nostalgic Vagabond' podcast, I talk with Katie and Gaurav. Together they are the "Third Culture Nomads". Katie and Gaurav have been travelling together ever since they met in Singapore. 

In conversation, we talk about what travelling was like for these guys individually, (9:00) before they were a couple and then how travel has defined (12:00) their relationship.

Usually, my guests are solo travellers but in this talk, we focus on factors of maintaining a healthy travelling partnership (14:30) as well as a healthy relationship, in general, I think. Katie and Gaurav talk about the learning opportunities that exist in their relationship (30:30) and the gains which can be made through communicating feelings and perspectives to your partner (39:30). We talk about how we can change and evolve as travellers in the types we are and in the journeys we take, like train travel (48:30) which these nomads have grown to love.

A little bit of tried and tested advice is always good and I probe these guys for some useful tips. (55:30)Towards the end, Katie and Gaurav explain exactly what their name "Third Culture Nomads" (72:30) means...

Enjoy.
