Sibu Szymanowska joins Matt over a bottle of wine and shares her experience growing up in Costa Rica before moving to China at age 17. Sibu reflects on attending University in China, learning fluent Mandarin, and starting multiple businesses over her 7 years living there. She shares the impact of her travels throughout Asia and then her experience moving to Poland and re-connecting with her Polish heritage. Sibu then talks about her experience working for an NGO, living in a remote village in Nicaragua, developing a passion for human rights, and eventually doing a Master’s Degree in “International Conflict and Human Rights”. She also talks about co-founding The Hybrid Tours and explains how it centers the experiences of refugees and displaced people in the various destinations. Sibu shares how her tours help people learn about Palestine through the stories of refugees living in Jordan, and help people learn about the Bosnian genocide by meeting with survivors and former prison camp inmates during the tour of Bosnia. She also explains how you can join a Hybrid Tour and get a special Maverick Show discount. FULL SHOW NOTES WITH DIRECT LINKS TO EVERYTHING DISCUSSED ARE AVAILABLE HERE.
