The Audio Travel Show

Welcome to the audio travel show podcast. So, why audio travel? The list of places to travel is quite long & we may either not have the finances, the time, the health or even the travel guidelines to travel to all of them but all of us do have a powerful tool with us at all times. Our minds. The same mind which helps us to dream when we are asleep. The same mind which will help us travel when we are awake & that too with the help of ambient sounds and noises from the actual places we will be visiting. My name is Jay & I will take you on a sound journey filled with history, stories & poetry.
