Hello, and welcome to episode 148 with Will Hatton, more commonly known as the Broke Backpacker. This was such a super fun episode to record. There were so many laughs, quality anecdotes, and serious tips for budding travellers or entrepreneurs. 

Will has set up around 30 different businesses in his time, with some successes and failures along the way. He lays out all the lessons learned from those experiences. He talks us through how he created a tour in Pakistan on Snapchat, and in 24 hours, it sold out and how this helped him develop the Broke Backpacker brand. Towards the end of the episode, there is talk about his new business venture in Bali with Tribal Hostel. 

Will has travelled extensively over the last fifteen years and talks about his travels in India in the early days before social media. He talks about sending updates to his thirty-person strong email list about his travels. He survived on $3000 for two years in India and talked us through his techniques for this sensational statistic. We talk about Pakistan, Iran and South America for more travel wanderlust.

We both come from fairly similar backgrounds in England, growing up on council estates and thinking of joining the armed forces. We ponder how different our lives could have been if we had both followed through with those plans at the time. 

There is so much packed into this hour for all kinds of travellers here. Whether you are a backpacker, digital nomad, entrepreneur or adventurer, we cover all bases. I had a super fun, engaging chat with Will, and it was a pleasure to talk to him for an hour. 

Enjoy. Be inspired!
