On today’s episode of the GoNOMAD Travel Podcast, we’re unpacking a safety warning you’ve heard on every flight but may not have taken seriously: don’t reach for your phone if it slips between the airplane seats — call a flight attendant instead.

It sounds like a small thing, but as we explore in this episode, it’s a rule written in fire. Literally.

This story comes from reporting in Afar Magazine, and it reveals just how dangerous a crushed smartphone can be inside an aircraft cabin.

🔥 What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• Why a dropped phone can become a fire hazard

When a phone gets wedged in the seat’s mechanical components, it can be crushed if the seat moves. That’s when the lithium battery can overheat and enter thermal runaway, a chain reaction where the battery “rapidly heats up, releases flammable gases, and can ignite.”

• Real incidents that forced emergency landings and evacuations

We highlight several dramatic examples, including:

• A Southwest flight where a crushed phone ignited a seat at the gate, forcing all 108 passengers to evacuate via emergency slides.
• A Hawaiian Airlines flight that declared an emergency after a trapped phone began emitting a burning smell near landing.
• An Alaska Airlines flight that returned to the airport after a phone and portable battery pack ignited in the cabin.

• What the FAA data reveals

FAA records show 106 verified incidents between 2006 and early 2026 involving lithium batteries in phones overheating, smoking, or catching fire — with 21 incidents in 2025 alone.

• Why flight attendants insist you call them

Airline reps explain that crews are trained to access the tight, complex seat mechanisms safely. As American Airlines notes, “seats can vary between aircraft,” and flight attendants know how to retrieve a device before it becomes a hazard.

Delta adds that calling a crew member also prevents passengers from injuring themselves: “Those seats are tight. We’d rather get your phone out for you rather than have you potentially jam your finger.”

• What happens if the phone starts to smoke

If a device becomes hot or begins emitting fumes, the crew can immediately activate fire‑safety protocols — another reason they want to know right away.

✈️ The Big Takeaway

That quick line in the safety briefing isn’t just airline over‑caution. It’s a real, documented risk. If your phone slips into the seat, don’t reach for it — call a flight attendant. As the article concludes, “now you know, they weren’t kidding when they warned you about that.”

Most travelers arrive with a cinematic image in mind: bulls charging, runners sprinting, adrenaline everywhere. But the reality is more layered. The route changes character from section to section, and your experience depends entirely on where you stand and how early you prepare.

We break down the difference between street-level and balcony viewing, explain why timing and geography matter more than chaos, and explore how the rhythm of the morning builds long before the bulls are released. Losu explains how locals read the route, anticipate the movement, and choose their vantage points with precision. We also quote a friend of Max's who has been to the San Fermin festival 48 times, every year since 1976, he explains what he loves so much.

You’ll learn why the run lasts only a few minutes but requires hours of preparation, how the old town’s compact layout can confuse even seasoned travelers, and why clarity—not proximity—is the key to a memorable experience.

Whether you’re planning your first trip to San Fermín or just curious about what it’s really like to be there, this episode gives you the insider’s view of Pamplona’s most famous morning.

Find out more about how you can attend the Running of the Bulls from Losu Value at Basque Views, in Pamplona, Spain

In this episode, Senior Writer Chin Teh Liang takes us to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s largest and fastest-changing metropolis. Once known as Saigon, the city still carries the echoes of its wartime past and its elegant French colonial heritage—yet today it’s a booming, modern powerhouse with a skyline that surprises first‑time visitors.

What We Cover in This Episode

A City of Layers: Colonial Beauty, War History, and Modern Energy

Chin arrives during the 50th anniversary of Vietnam’s reunification, where long lines form outside the War Remnants Museum. Inside, he encounters some of the most powerful wartime photography in the world, along with reconstructions of prison “tiger cages” and even the original guillotine once used on prisoners.

Outside, the museum grounds display decommissioned helicopters, tanks, and fighter jets—sobering reminders of the country’s past.

French Colonial Architecture That Still Stuns

Ho Chi Minh City’s nickname, “The Little Paris of the East,” becomes clear as Chin explores its architectural gems:

1. Museum of Fine Arts — originally a tycoon’s mansion, now a museum filled with contemporary art, ancient sculpture, and breathtaking interior details like spiral staircases, stained glass, and Art Nouveau balconies.
2. Saigon Opera House — modeled after Paris’s Petit Palais, still offering nightly performances and pre‑show tours.
3. Street shoe‑shiners — a living remnant of the French colonial era.

The New Saigon: Skyscrapers, River Cruises, and the Metro

Along the Saigon River, glass towers rise above the water, including the iconic Bitexco Financial Tower and Landmark 81. Chin takes a nighttime river cruise, gliding under the color‑lit Ba Son Bridge while a violinist plays on board.

And for the first time ever, the city now has a brand‑new metro system, with 14 stations already running and more on the way—transforming how both locals and visitors move around the city.

Food, Cafés, and Sky‑High Dining

Ho Chi Minh City’s food scene is as diverse as its architecture:

1. The Café Apartment — a nine‑story residential building where every unit is a café. Perfect for people‑watching along the river promenade.
2. The Albion at Hôtel des Arts Saigon — a fine‑dining tasting menu featuring goose mousse, Hokkaido scallop, Wagyu tenderloin, and desserts made with Vietnamese chocolate, all served with panoramic city views.

A City Transformed

From war relics to world‑class dining, from colonial mansions to a futuristic metro, Chin reflects on how astonishing it is to see a place once defined by conflict now thriving as a vibrant, modern metropolis.

January 1 is not just a day but the beginning of a week-long holiday where locals and visitors alike engage in a variety of celebratory activities. The streets are bustling with life, illuminated by lanterns that glow softly against the backdrop of the night sky, while the scent of street food tantalizes the senses. This journey through Chiang Mai reveals the many layers of its New Year festivities, from its breathtaking natural beauty to the deep-rooted cultural practices that make this time of year so special. Among the most striking sights during this season is the blooming of the Himalayan cherry blossoms.

A short trip to Kun Chang Hian allows visitors to witness these stunning flowers in full bloom, creating a magical setting for exploration. Here, one can engage with local traditions, such as listening to the kyan, the traditional bamboo mouth organ played by village children, or trying one's hand at archery using bamboo bows.

The culinary scene is equally delightful, featuring local delicacies, including the famous grilled pork sausage, which embodies the rich flavors of Thai cuisine. As the celebrations culminate on New Year's Eve, a profound sense of spirituality envelops the city. Temples become sanctuaries for nighttime prayer, and the flickering lights of candles enhance the tranquil atmosphere. Participants gather to release floating lanterns, a symbolic gesture of releasing past burdens and inviting new fortunes into their lives.

This ritual not only enhances the visual splendor of the night sky but also fosters a deep connection among participants, creating a moment of shared hope and renewal. The New Year in Chiang Mai is more than just a celebration; it is a heartfelt embrace of tradition, community, and the promise of new beginnings.

EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode, we journey to Nuquí, one of the most remote and biodiverse corners of Colombia’s Pacific coast. It’s a place where the rainforest crashes into the ocean, where there are no roads, and where life moves to the rhythm of tides, rain, and community.

Our host revisits a 2008 expedition to the region—complete with a disastrous boat ride, rainforest hikes, dugout canoe journeys, and encounters with the pioneering eco‑lodges that helped shape sustainable tourism in Chocó.

We also explore how Nuquí has evolved over the past 15 years, marked by improved access, stronger community leadership, and a growing movement toward conservation and responsible travel. Yet despite these shifts, Nuquí remains wild, raw, and unforgettable.

🌊 WHAT YOU’LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE

1. A firsthand story of arriving in Nuquí by boat during a torrential Pacific storm
2. The rise and fall of El Cantil, one of Colombia’s early eco‑tourism pioneers
3. How local entrepreneurship reshaped coastal life in a region without roads
4. A magical journey up the Río Joví by dugout canoe to a hidden waterfall
5. What’s changed since 2008—from flights to whale‑watching to community‑run tours
6. How new eco‑lodges like La Kuka are continuing the legacy of sustainable travel
7. Why Nuquí still feels wild and untouched despite increased tourism
8. The enduring truth behind Colombia’s old tourism slogan: “The only risk is wanting to stay.”

🐋 HIGHLIGHTS & TAKEAWAYS

1. Nuquí is accessible only by plane or boat—and the boat option is not for the faint of heart
2. Chocó is one of the rainiest places on Earth, shaping both daily life and travel
3. Humpback whales migrate here from July to October, making it one of Colombia’s top wildlife experiences
4. Afro‑Colombian and Indigenous communities now lead many tours, surf lessons, and jungle hikes
5. Sustainable tourism is growing, with lodges partnering directly with local families and conservation groups
6. The region remains pristine and remote—a rare “off the map” destination in a crowded world

🧭 WHY THIS EPISODE MATTERS

Nuquí, Colombia, is more than a destination—it’s a case study in community‑driven tourism, environmental stewardship, and the delicate balance between access and preservation. This episode offers a window into a coastline that feels almost prehistoric, yet is evolving through the leadership of the people who call it home.

We guide you through the local culinary delights, such as the soft boiled eggs and kaya toast, and the enticing pork noodle soup that define the region's breakfast offerings. As we delve deeper, we highlight the unique opportunity to climb Mount Kinabalu, the highest peak in Southeast Asia, where the views await. Join us as we discover how Kota Kinabalu is not just a destination, but a launch pad for unforgettable adventures across Sabah and all of Borneo.

The Sunday morning market in Kota Kinabalu transforms this strip into a vibrant hub of activity, showcasing local dishes that define Sabahan cuisine. The soft-boiled eggs paired with kaya toast, a delicacy made from coconut jam, paired with the local favorite pork noodle soup, offer a taste of the region that is both comforting and delicious.

As night falls, the Filipino market along the waterfront becomes a sensory overload, where grilled chicken wings, drizzled with honey and local snacks like La Tak, present an adventurous culinary experience for those willing to step outside their comfort zone.

Further enriching the experience, the episode delves into Sabah's indigenous culture at the Kdca Cultural Village. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in the traditions of the local communities, engaging with various indigenous groups while enjoying performances of traditional dances. The Simaziu dance, accompanied by the rhythmic sounds of gongs, provides a glimpse into the area’s rich cultural heritage, while the chance to participate in the harvest festival emphasizes the community spirit and appreciation for local agricultural practices. Such cultural insights not only enhance the travel experience but also foster a deeper understanding of the local way of life.

The natural landscapes surrounding Kota Kinabalu are equally impressive, with opportunities for adventure and relaxation. A short boat ride from Jesselton Point leads to stunning islands within Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park, where activities such as snorkeling and jet skiing await.

For those seeking a more daring challenge, the hike to Mount Kinabalu is a highlight, requiring a licensed guide to navigate the trails safely. The hike culminates in a breathtaking sunrise view that is a reward for the effort. Alternatively, the picturesque town of Kundasang offers a serene escape with its rolling meadows and opportunities to visit the Kundasang War Memorial, honoring those lost in WWII.

Overall, Kota Kinabalu is portrayed as a launching point for an unforgettable journey through Sabah, balancing the vibrancy of markets with the tranquility of nature and culture.

Then we visit the new Siem Reap Angkor International Airport in Cambodia, a project launched in response to the burgeoning tourism in 2025, surrounding the iconic Angkor Wat. With state-of-the-art infrastructure designed to handle millions of passengers, the airport’s reality starkly contrasts its ambitions; it grapples with underutilization and fierce competition from other regional airports.

The Cambodian government remains hopeful about its potential role in bolstering the nation’s tourism and economic landscape, yet the challenges it faces underscore the complexities inherent in fostering growth in less accessible regions.

Then we tell story of Ciudad Real Central Airport in Spain. Once envisioned as a pivotal European transit hub, it too met an untimely demise due to operational failures and financial miscalculations, culminating in its bankruptcy within just three years of operation. This trajectory of decline across various global airports serves as a sobering testament to the volatility of the aviation sector, and how sometimes airports can come back from nearly dead, as in Worcester Mass Airport.

The narrative unfolds as Chin Liang, a GoNOMAD senior writer, guides us through his home, the island of Penang, Malaysia, a locale that, despite its small size, boasts an impressive array of cultural and natural riches.

He emphasizes the necessity of allocating a minimum of three days to fully appreciate the myriad experiences that Penang presents. The capital, George Town, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, offers a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, with its well-preserved pre-war architecture reflecting a confluence of Malay, Chinese, and Hindu influences, all intertwined with British colonial charm.

The vibrant street art, including the iconic mural 'Children on a Bicycle' by Lithuanian artist Ernest Zakovobek, serves as a testament to the island’s artistic spirit, where every alley and street corner narrates a story steeped in history.

Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy Penang National Park, a compact yet ecologically diverse area that features two distinct trails leading to Monkey Beach and a unique meromictic lake. The latter, with its stratified water layers, presents a rare ecological phenomenon.

Visitors can take guided tours at the Penang Turtle Sanctuary, which fosters awareness about marine conservation. Chin also extols the virtues of Penang Hill, accessible via a swift funicular ride, or for the more adventurous, a scenic hike along the Heritage Trail, where one may encounter diverse wildlife, including flying lemurs and various avian species.

Culinary exploration is an intrinsic aspect of any sojourn in Penang. From the celebrated Assam Laksa to the rich and tangy Kari Kapitan, the dishes are emblematic of the Peranakan culture born from the intermingling of Chinese immigrants and local Malays.

The local food scene is punctuated by several Michelin-starred establishments, ensuring that gastronomes will find themselves in a culinary paradise.

With a rich diversity of landscapes, from the Andes mountains to the Amazon rainforest, visitors can connect with indigenous cultures and partake in authentic experiences. The rise of community-based tourism, especially since the 1990s, showcases how local populations have adapted to create sustainable income sources while preserving their heritage. It all began with an earthquake in the 1990s when many tourists were stranded and asked locals to let them stay in their homes. It grew.

Tune in to discover how ethical tourism practices are paving the way for a healthier future for both the communities and the environment in Ecuador.

Unlike traditional tourism, which often leads to a substantial loss of profits for local communities—up to 70% according to a 2014 UN report—community-based tourism ensures that the economic benefits flow directly into the hands of those who preserve and share their cultural heritage. This initiative not only fosters economic independence but also promotes sustainable practices that protect the environment and local customs.

A major focus of the trip to Lubbock was Texas wine, something the author admittedly had no clue existed before her visit. It turns out that Texas was actually the site of the first American vineyard established nearly 400 years ago by Franciscan monks.

Today, Texas ranks fifth in wine production by American state after Oregon, New York, Washington and of course, California, which produces an overwhelming 81% of all US wine. Sarah visited two wineries during a visit to Lubbock.

McPherson Cellars Liano Estesado The McPherson family has been producing Texas wine for the better half of a century, as explained by owner Kim as he guided the group through an array of delicious samples. Sarah's favorite was his crown jewel, a Roussanne that was awarded double Gold and Best in Class at the San Francisco International Wine Competition.

Llano Estacado lays an impressive claim. The winery is the birthplace of West Texas wine, founded by a group of hopeful investors way back in 1976.

Among these investors was a Texas Tech horticulturist who was convinced that West Texan soil could produce quality wine in a time when most had their doubts. Sarah left with a now treasured souvenir, a T-shirt that reads Brave Texans didn't die at the Alamo so we could sip California wine.

Lubbock is a hub of culture and creativity as reflected in the scores of public art found on its streets.

The city's largest university, Texas Tech, has an impressive collection of public art dotting the campus, and visitors can condense their tour of the sprawling property by booking a free ride on the art cart, a 12-person trolley that makes stops at several outdoor sculptures. Plan to visit after sunset for the best view of the installations that contain illuminated components.

Lubbock's art scene was explored at the Charles Adams Studio project, called CASP for short. CASP is home to the Helen Devitt Jones Print Studio, where she had the opportunity to create her own tote bag using a printing press.

One of CASP's most unique features is its Live and Work Studio complex, which provides full-time residences for professional artists and gives them ample opportunities to exhibit their work, such as the popular First Friday Art Trail, which boasts pop up exhibitions at several locations in downtown Lubbock along with food trucks and live music. Like visual art, Music has a long history of importance in Lubbock. The city is the birthplace of rock and roll legend Buddy Holly.

Holly fans can tour the Buddy Holly center to learn little-known facts about the singer and view memorabilia, including his instantly recognizable thick-frame glasses. You can't miss the museum. It has a pair of those giant Holly spectacles right out front.

Whether you're looking for a traditional Southern Texas barbecue or eclectic fine dining, Lubbock's restaurant scene offers a wide array of tastes.

Evie May's Pit BBQ in Lubbock, renowned for smoked meat and Dirks, named for the cartoonist and former mayor Dirk west, is well-loved for its crispy fried chicken.

On the final night in Lubbock, Sarah included a visit to the Nicolette, where chef Finn Walter showcased ingredients native to the High Plains using techniques he's picked up through his long career between the Napa Valley, Austin, Paris, and Santa Fe. The three-course dinner began with caviar and smoked antelope, perfectly cooked and dressed with a sweet and savory sauce.

Unsurprisingly, antelope was another first for Sarah from Canada, and Lubbock seemed to be the perfect place to give it a try. The animals are commonly found roaming the American High Plains in Texas and beyond and are not endangered.

If you find yourself craving a trip to the American South, don't overlook Lubbock, Texas. Come with an appetite for unique wine, nourishing meals, and art in all its forms.

Find out more about Lubbock on GoNomad, where we also do a deep dive into the Buddy Holley Museum.

A visit to Hearst Castle, an architectural marvel, allows one to glimpse the opulence of the 1930s, while the nearby Piedras Blancas elephant seal colony presents a chance to observe these giant creatures in their natural habitat.

As we stroll along the Moonstone Beach boardwalk, the serene ambiance and California's ocean air lets us reflect on the simple yet profound beauty of this region. This episode encapsulates the essence of a retreat into nature, highlighting the allure of California's empty Central Coast.

As we traverse this scenic area, we are indebted to the Hearst Corporation for the preservation of the 83,000 acres surrounding Hearst Castle. This iconic structure, with its storied history and opulent architecture, serves as a focal point for our explorations.

We visit local wineries, such as Vino Robles. Our exploration culminates in a serene evening stroll along the Moonstone Beach boardwalk in Cambria.
