What if you could form a connection so deep with an animal that it changes your entire perspective on life? 

Our friend Rohit Wadwadi joins us to share his incredible journey working with animals at Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Sierra Leone, where he raised a baby chimp named Flavor and formed a bond like no other. 

Rohit's story is a testament to the profound impact animals can have on our lives and the incredible connections we can make with them.

In this heartwarming conversation, we explore Rohit's journey of giving back through volunteering and how it led him to a life of minimalist living and joy. 

Rohit also shares how his upbringing has inspired him to help others. 

Finally, Rohit opens up about facing fears and embracing freedom as he shares his experience of overcoming childhood fears and applying the same approach to his adult life. 

In this podcast episode, you will learn how taking risks and stepping out of our comfort zones can lead to personal growth and even greater opportunities. 

From volunteering for bird conservation to learning AI in European hubs, Rohit's story is an inspiration for us all to take action and follow our dreams.

The adventure is the people. This is what we tell people when they ask about our travels. And one of our biggest interpersonal adventures has been meeting Rohit, who has traveled the world, working for NGOs and helped save migrating birds as a human shield against hunters on Malta, caring for a baby chimp in Sierra Leona, and working with wolves in Scotland.  Besides this - he is a wonderful human being who has inspired us on many levels. 

Now it is time for you to meet Rohit and hopefully be inspired.

🗓️ Recorded March 9th, 2023. 📍Garrufo, Provincia di Teramo, Italy
