The New Travel | Indigo Traveller - Podcast #12 (North Korea, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Extreme Travel) @TheNewTravel | Uploaded November 2021 | Updated October 2024, 45 minutes ago.
Today's episode is a conversation with Nick Fischer (@IndigoTraveller). Nick makes travel videos in very unusual and often extreme locations such as North Korea, Afghanistan, Somalia, Yemen, and more. Indigo Traveller videos sometimes blur the line between travel videos and journalism - though Nick is quick to point out that he isn't a journalist. What he is though is one of the more unique travel channels on YouTube. His work has not only earned Indigo Traveller over 1 million subscribers, but it has also raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities around the world.
