I found Clara Franken in a podcast newsletter, and started listening that morning to her podcast, Travel Devil, and the first episode I listened to was about the Trash Traveler; a man who travels and brings attention to himself by cleaning up the area, and I knew I wanted to hear all about what else she's learned hosting a podcast all about sustainable travel.

Clara lives in Germany, but is from Belgium, so she travels a lot, but she mostly travels by train, or "slow" travel, as she calls it. And she explains why. And she really walks the walk, and it shows, as the week prior to this episode airing, she's  featured on a billboard at the train station in Leipzig! (she has yet to see it with her own eyes - not for lack of trying - but her friend has seen it!)

I love Clara's Instagram reels - she's very committed to sustainability, and she's also very entertaining! It was fun hearing how creative people are getting with their traveling from her.
