Episode 70 of One Happy Podcast features a guest who has was on the show way back in episode 4 of the show, Vallon Davis. On my last trip down to Aruba in mid-September, Vallon and I both occupied the island at the same time. We didn’t have the opportunity to meet, just because vacation and scheduling oftentimes don’t mesh well. However, upon both of us returning home we made it a point to catch up.
On this episode, Vallon shares the details of his trip to Aruba. We talk about the challenges of getting to and from one Caribbean island to another. What it’s like landing on Aruba at night, the Marriott and the Aruba based books written by Daniel Putkowski. This interview is nothing like his first one which followed my tried and true formula. Since Vallon has been a prior guess this is pretty much two friends sitting down and chatting.
One of the main purposes for Vallon making this trip to Aruba was to reunite with old friends from the island. One thing that you will learn from his story is just how much of a focus his friends were. While Aruba is different things for different people, for Vallon it’s not about the fancy restaurants or excursions. His trips are about visiting a place he absolutely loves and hanging out with the people who make those visits complete.
