Women of the World podcast is about amplifying the voices of the many fearless women who are either currently on the road or who has a story to tell about traveling. Themes such as diversity, sustainability, solo female travel, and ethical issues will be discussed. Moreover, expect to hear funny and inspiring stories that will make you want to pack your backpack and get on the road. Hosted by Thuha Nguyen.
In the final episode of season 1, I sit down with Hattie, one of the co-founders of the Travelling Whale which is a woman-run tour agency focusing on sustainable adventures. We talk about the choice of name (trust me, it’s really interesting!), what the poop loop is, how it’s been running a travel agency during the pandemic, and much more.
