About The Guest(s)

Sam and Veren, aka the Alternative Travelers, like to travel slowly on a budget while following a sustainable, vegan lifestyle. After leaving New York in early 2016 they realized that it'd be cheaper to travel than living in one of the most expensive cities in the world. After two years of living in Madrid, Spain, they now travel full time via house sitting.

Ever had a trip go so spectacularly wrong it becomes a story you tell for years? That’s the territory explored in Travel Horror Stories Podcast, hosted by Christopher Rudder. This isn't just a collection of misfortunes, though. Each episode sits down with a diverse mix of guests-from seasoned travel writers and influencers to professionals in tourism and regular people who just ventured a bit too far off the map. They share their most vivid, gripping tales from the road, which range from the genuinely scary and tense to the downright weird, silly, and unsettling. The real hook is what happens after the story is told. Rudder and his guest unpack the experience, digging into what actually went awry, what the traveler did right in the moment, and what could have been done differently. It’s this blend of empathetic storytelling and practical reflection that gives the podcast its unique flavor. You’ll find yourself cringing, laughing, and maybe even learning a thing or two about navigating the unpredictable world of travel. Tuning into this podcast feels like swapping stories with a well-traveled friend, where every misadventure holds a lesson, or at least a really good laugh.
