Today we talk with Chris Christensen of the Amateur Traveler’s podcast. The show is about travel and travel stories. It is intended for people who love to travel or at least dream about travel.
Chris has gone many different places, and some of them for free. He doesn’t have a major pile of gear, and uses a simple headset and a macintosh laptop with Garage Band software.

Not only is Chris benefiting by free travel, you will see where he has advertising on his site, and also is selling the pictures he takes during his travels. His pictures are absolutely gorgeous and you need to check out his website to do them justice. That website is www.amateurtraveler.com

Chris is growing his audience by networking with other travel based podcasters which you can hear at http://thisweekintravel.com/

It doesn’t matter if its Michigan, Greece, Egypt, Hawaii, Ghana, Bangkok, Chris has got an episode about it. Currently his show is sponsored by Viking river cruises.

Congrats to Chris for taking a passion and hobby and harnessing the power of podcasting.
