We’ve got something a little different but very special for you today. This episode comes from Winging It, a travel podcast hosted by my friend James Hammond, who you’ll hear from shortly. He takes us on an immersive, on-location audio adventure through San Salvador, El Salvador – and trust me, it’s a journey worth tagging along for.

James has a brilliant way of mixing practical travel tips with rich, ambient storytelling. Think the vibe of a Lonely Planet guide meets the easygoing chat you’d have with a mate at the hostel. You’ll hear the real sounds of the city—markets, cafés, public squares—plus firsthand insight into what it’s actually like to travel in El Salvador today.

🔍 In this episode, you’ll experience:

  • First impressions and travel tips for San Salvador

  • Iconic landmarks like the National Palace & Metropolitan Cathedral

  • Amazing street food and coffee culture (yes, including pupusas 🫓)

  • Two walking tours with local guides revealing hidden stories and history

  • A fresh perspective on safety, affordability, and modern life in the city

  • Budget tips for where to stay, eat, and explore

This is a great listen whether you’re planning a trip to Central America or just love exploring the world from your headphones.

🎧 Hit play and let’s discover San Salvador together. And if you like what you hear, check out James’ show: Winging It Travel Podcast. I’ve dropped all the links below.
