171: Layover Secrets – How To Get The Most Out Of Every Minute You’ve Got – Michael Wedaa
Michael Wedaa has travelled to more than 100 countries on six continents. His love of travel started in his youth when he visited many of the great national parks in the U.S. He then took his first major international trips to Europe, South America, and Asia in 2011. From there, he caught the travel bug and began taking four international trips per year. In 2020, he became the host of a travel TV show called The Layover Experience.
HERE IS A SNEAK PEEK OF WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE…

- What does it take for the love of travel to rule your life! I chat with Michael about how travel changed my life and the important lessons I’ve learned from the people I’ve met along the way.
- I bet you’re thinking…it’s so easy to go to London, Paris and Rome…but what about Iran, Egypt or Tanzania? Listen to how Michael visited those countries and his wild experiences.
- Michael and I share some great stories about the countries we’ve visited that people have been really afraid to travel to.

- Michaels YouTube Show is called ‘Layover Guru’. In today’s episode, Michael and I talk about how you can utilize your time on a layover of let’s say 6 – 24 hours. Are you like most people and just sit in the airport? Ya, I get that. But listen to this…Michael uses that time to see a new city or a new country that he may never get a chance to visit again. He shares his tips and tricks for everyone to enjoy.
- Is Covid still scaring you? Are you waiting for things to go back to normal? Michael talks about all of the travelling he’s done in the past 2 years and how you can make it a reality.

HOW TO REACH
CONCLUSION:
I’ve never been the sort of guy that loved sitting in an airport, but I always just did it, no matter how long the wait was. I try to book the least amount of time between flights I can, but if I had much of a wait, I would sit in the business class lounge and work.
But I have to say, this conversation with Michael Wedaa has really changed my mind. I think maybe using his tips and tricks for my next flight will greatly enhance my experience!
Make sure you buy his book. It contains an absolute ton of information for both novice and seasoned travellers!
I’m excited to see what trouble I can get into in a new city or country!
