If you're curious by nature or simply enjoy hearing fresh perspectives from diverse everyday people, here's a podcast I'd love to recommend! The Thought Atlas Podcast recently invited me on for a fun yet deep conversation around inter-cultural experiences, career transitions, and how technology/AI is shaping us. Host Blessed is intellectual and compassionate. If this might sound like your jam, I'd love for you to give it a listen and help his channel grow! (Episode link coming soon)

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 host Jon Francois for an episode of The Delicious Culture podcast, and wow, this is probably the craziest podcast guesting I've done thus far. We covered plenty of Iceland fun fact, dogs and cats fun facts, shared lots of laughs, and had some behind-the-scenes look at my work and journey. Oh, why is there a poo emoji on the thumbnail, you ask? Well, you'll have to listen to find out!

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! 💚
