Podcast host and tour guide Ted Cragg joins me today to talk about his homeland, Canada.

\\n

Ted hosts the TRAVEL PODCAST THE WORLD SHOW. He talks with to other travel podcasters about their shows, their inspirations and the behind the scenes process that make their shows complete. Ted had me on his show a few weeks ago, and I enjoyed the conversation so much that I wanted to have him to talk to you.

\\n

During this episode, we talk through a whole fictional trip to eastern Canada, taking in the cities, the wilderness, mountains and lakes.

\\n

You can tell, during this conversation that I come from a such small country, as I don\\u2019t think I really understood quite how large Canada actually is. It really seems like you\\u2019d need several trips to do it justice, unless you\\u2019re going for multiple weeks or even months.

\\n

We talk about some cultural highlights of a trip around the country; how you\\u2019d be best to get around the place; what corners you might want to explore depending on what you\\u2019re looking for; and why Canada makes such an interesting travel destination.
