29: Dan Fogarty on Travel and Life: Less Overthinking, More Serendipity

Published: Nov. 30, 2017, noon

Hiking and playing in the mountains of Europe is so civilized and Dan Fogarty is here to talk to us about it.\xa0

Dan Fogarty is a brand consultant who has created a flexible lifestyle that allows him to travel the world. He has worked for brands you just might have heard of: Chipotle, Potbelly, Dig In (originally The Pump in NY) and Noodles and Company. Today we\u2019re going to learn how overthinking is overrated and by simply letting go just a tad of control and having faith all will work out. Your career and your next adventure will be far richer for it.

Things we talk about:

  • Hiking in the European mountains and forgive us as we gush just a bit but sorry not sorry. We can\u2019t help it.
  • The beauty and the risk of truly getting off the beaten path. Just because you\u2019ve never heard of it, doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not worth visiting.\xa0

What Dan forgot to mention but sent me later: The whole region (in the Dolomites in Italy) is starting to market themselves as Sud Tyrol. (South Tyrol, as opposed to Tyrol in Austria)

Each has something like a ski map for summer trails, showing lifts, refugi (huts) and towns and the connections between everything. (You can see that map here.)

So listen on and lets gear up for what\u2019s next.
