I will be a guest on two episodes of the Nerdy Psychologist Book Club podcast discussing Laila Lalami's award-winning novel, The Dream Hotel, towards the end of this summer. The host Brandi and her team are based in my local area in Sacramento, CA, so even though this is not directly related to travel or puzzles, I am very excited to meet and chat with local bookworms! I hope you will enjoy listening to it!

I joined Bill on his Where Have You Been? podcast for a more than 1.5-hour long deep dive into life, culture, and curiosity. Our conversation shined light on places we’ve been, travels we’re planning, and all the stories in between. It was a perfect opportunity for me to reflect on my journey as a cross-cultural kid, international researcher, and an early-stage travel author. I am very excited to share this conversation with you! 💚
