&lt;p&gt;This episode dives into the world of electric adventure travel with Tom Weiser and Kevin Murphy, co-founders of Nerpa Travel. Their company crafts low-impact, high-adventure trips that swap petrol-powered bangers for electric motorbikes and e‑bikes, combining sustainable transport with genuine cultural immersion.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tom and Kev share:  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How COVID and COP26 inspired them to launch Nerpa Travel  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The reality of running EV adventures in places like Vietnam, Thailand, and Wales  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Charging challenges, public transport hacks, and “squeaky bum” moments on the road&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Why small group travel and community connections are at the heart of their model  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Plans for upcoming adventures, including potential West Africa expeditions  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From mountain passes in rural Vietnam to the slow travel benefits of local buses, this conversation explores how EV travel can be both practical and transformative.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find out more at &lt;a href="https://www.nerpatravel.com"&gt;https://www.nerpatravel.com&lt;/a&gt; and discover their upcoming Lost in Vietnam trip, 3–13 December 2026. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
