This week is a little different.

I went back through the Winging It archives and handpicked 15 previous guests, asking each of them the same quick-fire question:

"What would you say to someone who's nervous about travelling and why they should go?"

Their answers are honest, inspiring, funny and thought-provoking. Whether you're dreaming about your first solo trip, planning a career break, or simply need a reminder of why we explore, these 15 reasons might be exactly what you need.

Featuring adventurers, authors, broadcasters, travel creators and industry experts, this episode is the perfect way to kick off the summer.
