This weekend, 7 Minute Stories will debut the very first episode of its brand new monthly series: 7MS Presents: The Storytelling University.
In this premiere conversation, Aaron Calafato sits down with Noraly Schoenmaker (Itchy Boots) — YouTube sensation and creator of the hugely popular Itchy Boots channel — for an in-depth look at the power of storytelling and how it has shaped Noraly’s life on and off the road. From her early days as a geologist in the Netherlands to solo motorcycle journeys across some of the most remote parts of the world, Noraly shares how storytelling has allowed her to document not just her travels, but the people, emotions, and small human moments along the way. The conversation also comes on the heels of her New York Times bestselling book, Free Ride, which offers fans a deeper, more personal look behind the scenes of her global adventures.
The full audio episode will drop this weekend on the 7 Minute Stories podcast feed, with a video version of the conversation coming to YouTube later this June as part of the launch of The Storytelling University video series.
