From the publisher

Have you ever thought that maybe life could be…different? That maybe there’s another path, an adventure, stashed away for no one but you. This adventure, it’s buried out there, and if you don’t do something, it’ll stay buried till long after you’re gone. This is a story of losing yourself in the world. I'm Jonny Wright, and I left my home, my job, and the USA in order to learn the old-fashioned way: with first-hand experience. Some people go on a journey to find themselves. I went on a journey to lose myself—and instead find the world. In these episodes, I ask big questions about life, not from an armchair but from roadsides and mountaintops, from temple halls and dance halls. Join me as I hitchhike across the world, embrace the unexpected, and let go, one step at a time. If you’ve ever thought about living a life outside the box, keep listening. Because this isn’t just about my story. It’s about what happens when you start to wonder what your story could be. You don’t need to hitchhike around the world. I’m here to empower you to live with more courage, more curiosity, and more adventure, right here, right now. Let’s go and find out.

S1 Ep 1515. Full Moon

Under the full moon at the Rainbow Gathering, Jonny faces his season-long antagonist: himself. What begins with talismans from the road (the soldier card, a foam tooth, a charcoal portrait) builds to a firelit rite where he chooses to dance, plunges into the lake, and is pulled into a circling, drum-driven whirlwind of memory: Taz at the piano, Syd on the plane, Hande’s unflinching gaze. For a breath he becomes “no one,” judgment drops, and belonging replaces distance. By sunrise, among ashes and a lone Czech dancer still moving, Jonny understands the cost and gift of letting go, and says yes to going further.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.

S1 Ep 1414. Gate to the Rainbow

In Gate to the Rainbow, Jonny leaves the city behind and climbs into the mountains on a search for the hidden Rainbow Gathering. The path narrows, the rain closes in, and every step feels like crossing deeper into another world. What begins as a hopeful trek turns into a threshold moment, part trial, part initiation, as Jonny confronts both the wilderness and the weight of what lies ahead.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.

S1 Ep 1313. An Ambulance and an Ogre

Jonny breaks his solo streak as he sprints south toward a full-moon gathering in Macedonia. After landing in Belgrade, he falls into an easy, platonic rhythm with Beyza, a soft-spoken Turkish MD, and the two decide to hitchhike together to Skopje. The road answers with set pieces worthy of a fable: a ride in a brand-new ambulance, a Macedonian traffic-cop instructor who forbids seatbelts and leaves the car rolling backward, and a night with a kind, chaotic host, an “ogre” in his cave, whose attic refuge becomes their fort. Along the way Jonny tests what changes when travel becomes us instead of me: the risk, the laughter, and the unexpected sense of safety. As the moon swells, they part ways, Beyza north, Jonny into the woods, on the edge of whatever opens next.Created and produced by Jonny Wright. Title design by Ellen Misloski.

S1 Ep 1212. Polish Pyramid Goodbye

In this episode, Jonny returns to spend luminous days with friends Weronika and Tomasz before their paths diverge—toward work, study, and, for Tomasz, an uncertain future. What follows is a layered narrative of car rides, laughter, and small rituals intercut with Weronika’s later account of Tomasz’s unraveling in Kraków. The story moves between memory and aftermath, grappling with the paradox of a brilliant but unfinished life, and asking what remains when a journey ends abruptly.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.

In Krakow, Jonny meets Tomasz, a mercurial philosopher, and Weronika, a sharp-eyed artist. At first, there’s tension: a subtle contest for connection. But over time it transforms into an unconventional friendship shaped by fierce debate, unexpected loyalty, and the quiet moments that make people choose to stay. This episode explores the rare chemistry between three friends whose bond defies easy definition, revealing how conflict, contrast, and care can coexist in the same relationship.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.

S1 Ep 1010. My President

In My President, Jonny meets Hande, a sharp, enigmatic woman with a mischievous glint and a mind that moves fast. What begins as playful texting quickly spirals into a flirtatious, imaginary world of governments, power plays, and made-up titles. But beneath the banter, something real stirs. As Jonny follows Hande through concerts, conversations, and an abandoned building, he finds himself drawn closer—and terrified. This is the episode where charm gives way to truth, where Jonny’s greatest fear emerges: being truly seen. In a moment of near-connection, he falters. And though the encounter is electric, it ends in retreat.Created and produced by Jonny Wright. Title design by Ellen Misloski.

Through bonfires, reveries, and a rising sense of restlessness, Jonny must decide whether to stay in the safe rhythm of work… or return to the deeper, stranger path that first called him to travel. A spark is coming. But first, the choice to follow it.Created and produced by Jonny Wright. Title design by Ellen Misloski.Got thoughts, stories, or weird travel tips?

S1 Ep 808. The Circus of Sören Sieg

When Jonny arrives in Warsaw to visit Sören Sieg, a composer, comedian, and magnetic host of extravagant house concerts, he’s not sure what to expect.

But behind the performance, Jonny begins to notice something deeper: a restlessness, a loneliness, a need to fill every silence.As the night unfolds, what begins as a quirky artist portrait transforms into a quiet revelation about childhood, memory, and the ways we construct our adult lives to fill old gaps. By the end, Jonny isn’t just seeing Sören more clearly. He’s seeing himself.Created and produced by Jonny Wright. Title design by Ellen Misloski.Got thoughts, stories, or weird travel tips?

S1 Ep 707. The Hitchhiker That Always Made It

For months, Jonny hitchhiked across country after country, always reaching his destination. The story became part of his identity: he was the hitchhiker who always made it.

In this episode, Jonny confronts failure, control, and what’s left when the story you’ve built around yourself begins to collapse.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.

S1 Ep 606. Strawberries and Blueberries

Jonny is unraveling. The stories he’s told about himself are starting to fray. In this episode, he walks the parks of Brussels with Mia, who believes identity is something we weave, and flashes back to New York, where he met Goga, a wild, grounded presence living entirely outside of narrative. Goga eats from the trash, sleeps wherever he lands, and lives without planning or performance. Moved by their example, Jonny makes an impulsive choice: to sleep outside, unprotected, in the city that never sleeps. Strawberries and Blueberries is a glimpse at the possibility of life without the life story.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.

S1 Ep 404. Three Roads Out

Jonny is searching. Not just for new places, but for a life that feels like his. In this episode, he drifts through Belgium, meeting two men living vastly different paths: one rooted and conventional, the other artistic and free. But neither life fits. A surreal, moonlit encounter on a hill outside Leuven reveals a third path: strange, silent, and unnamable. As the episode unfolds, Jonny grapples with the tension between motion and meaning, rhythm and rut, and wonders, what kind of life can hold both change and belonging? This is the crossroads. The place between stories. The edge before the next leap.Created and produced by Jonny Wright. Title design by Ellen Misloski.Got thoughts, stories, or weird travel tips?

S1 Ep 101. Leaving It All

Jonny is restless. Comfortable, but quietly unraveling. In this debut episode, he walks away from his home in Asheville, a steady job, and the safety of routine to hitchhike around the world with no fixed plan, no finish line, and no idea what comes next. As he stares down his own fears, talks with a seasoned hitchhiker, and finally sticks out his thumb, Jonny discovers that sometimes the scariest part of a leap isn’t the landing. It’s the letting go. This is where the journey begins: not in a new country, but in the decision to leave everything behind.Created and produced by Jonny Wright.
