About The Guest(s)

Nora has travelled full-time for 12 years and continues to travel half the year. She’s lived in and travelled through 60+ countries and counting. She is an expert on travel, personal finance (as a former CFP), and lifestyle design and has coined the term financially sustainable travel. It’s not about budget travel (though she’s done a bunch of that), nor is it about being environmentally sustainable (though she’s a big advocate of that too). It’s about making money successfully, spending money smartly, and managing it wisely – all in the arena of lifestyle travel. These three pillars form the foundation of her website.

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.
