Translations, Languages, & Papua New Guinea in the latest podcast
2/16/2019
I have Rondal joining me today and we are talking about translation and languages, which is very helpful to the world traveler. Rondal has spent his entire career as a translator of the Bible and is more than qualified to discuss translation and languages. The first half of his field work was done in Papua New Guinea, so we also cover that nation in-depth, which I find to be fascinating and very remote.

Below are links to several of the subject matters we discuss in the podcast: Pioneer bible translators Switzerland Papua New Guinea Port Moresby Madang Africa Crimea Travisa Polish language Dagestan

Road trip around the southwest USA in a modified truck – podcast #10
1/19/2019
Warren & Erica join me as we talk about their three-month road trip around the southwest USA in a pickup truck that Warren modified.

What is life aboard a sailboat like? Find out in this podcast
9/15/2018
In the second episode of the Guiding Light podcast I am going to chat with Steve Thorn, who spent two months with me this summer. We sat down during our sail from Tobago to Trinidad and talked about life aboard a sailboat. Our discussion started with St Lucia, where I picked him up at, and then went into what he thought of cruising, things he liked about being aboard, things that took some adjustment, and things he missed. I think it is a great insight from a novice and well worth listening if you have ever thought of living aboard or are just fascinated by the idea. Here are a few links to different subjects and places we touched apon: St Lucia The Fruit Guy of Rodney Bay The Guiding Light (a Lagoon 410) Trade winds Soccer (football) Cruising Outpost

Meet your host and captain
9/1/2018
Welcome to the very first Guiding Light podcast. I am so excited to be launching this cruising and travel podcast where we will talk about all things boating and cruising, but also talk heavily about traveling in general and specifically about different locations. For this first episode I have my mother with me to help introduce you to me as your host. She has all kind of questions for me related to life aboard a boat, safety on the boat, and where all I have traveled in the offseason. On a personal note, it was a lot of fun doing this episode with her and I am glad it worked out as well as it did. New episodes will come out every other Saturday. I hope you enjoy them and come back to listen every episode. If there is a subject you would like to hear please let me know. Also, please let me hear any suggestions you may have. Thanks for listening!!!!!
