Captain Chris Staudinger is an experienced world traveler...now. But back in 2006, he visited Myanmar (Burma), during a time of political unrest, militarization and a general mistrust of anyone American. He looked like a spy.

On this episode, Chris tells his story of escaping the country after he and his friends saw something that they should not have seen.

Chris now runs a travel blog with his girlfriend Tawny Clark. They travel the world on next to no money and teach others how to do the same.
