Solo Travel Nerves

In this week’s Talking Travel, Kieran is joined by BBC legend and ex-Blue Peter presenter Janet Ellis. She rediscovered the joy of travel years after her late husband and travel partner, John, passed on. They discuss the ups and downs of solo trips, and what the uninitiated can do to prepare themselves to take that initial leap into exploring the world on their own.
