Host Christy Prosser reflects on the unexpected lessons of quiet moments found while traveling, before sunrise on a Namibian dune, drifting through the Mekong Delta, an empty Heathrow after a historic day, and returning to rural Georgia.

Through these in-between miles, the episode explores how silence teaches belonging, presence, and the way travel can bring you back to yourself. This is Miles from the Known.

At Dune 45 before sunrise, Christy Prosser and a Sans tribesman climb red dunes and watch the sky change as he shares an ancient legend: the sun and moon once walked the earth. The episode follows the slow, tactile rhythm of the desert, the impala moving below, shifting sands, and the quiet power of an ancient, barren, red landscape.

From the dunes to salt pans and a 900-year-old camelthorn tree, the journey becomes a meditation on silence, endurance, and belonging. Christy ends with a reflection on how the desert strips away noise and reveals what is real.
