Ever been locked up in a jail cell in Berkeley or taken a selfie with the Dalai Lama? No, neither have we. That's why we invited the one and only Ruby Wax to appear on our podcast, The Rough Guide to Everywhere, and share her experiences from the road.

In this episode, Ruby takes us on a tour of her brilliant and bizarre life in travel. From a formative hitchhiking trip to Mexico, to just last year when she booked a flight to the other side of the world when Donald Trump got elected as president. Ruby also shares her love for bohemian destinations, and tips us off on one or two places where she has discovered "that real thing".

We hope you enjoy this episode – don’t forget to let us know what you think. Rate us on Apple Podcasts and get in touch on Twitter using #roughguidespod!
