In this entertaining episode we speak with Martyn Evans. Martyn and I met at boarding school in 1997.. 23 years later we talk about how those experiences have contributed to who we are today and the mentality of an expat. What we see as 'normal' is often seen as extreme, strange, extravagant or just plain weird.

Also take the chance to visit Kwacha Road and sign up for Martyn's creative updates.
