Shownotes

In this interview, I sat down with Matt Kepnes, otherwise known as Nomadic Matt. Matt is the founder of NomadicMatt.com and the author of How to Travel the World on $50 a Day: Third Edition: Travel Cheaper, Longer, Smarter.

Matt has been to over 90 countries and is a true travel expert. He’s also an introvert.

He traveled to Costa Rica at the age of 23, one of his first international trips and decided to do a formal tour group, specifically so he wouldn’t be alone. According to 23 year-old Matt: “Traveling alone? That’s crazy talk!”

On this trip, Matt had an aha moment: Travel creates an opportunity for a fresh start and to break away from the weights, perceptions and history of home.

“In Costa Rica, I became the man I always wanted to be.” –Matt Kepnes
