Hello! My name is Matt otherwise known as Makin Moves with Matt and here is my travel podcast. I am just young buck from small town Maryland (IYKYK) on a mission to see every country in the world. My travels so far have taken me to 70 countries across 6 continents (Australia/Oceania- you next!) while also having lived in 3 countries abroad. The only thing I love more than traveling is talking about travel, culture, language, and food with other people from around the world. With untold stories and experiences, my goal is to inspire you to go out and see what this amazing planet has to offer.
