Joshua Walker is a travel blogger and the host of the Josh you Trippin: A Black Guy’s Travel Podcast!  Growing up in the South he loved the outdoors and as a self-proclaimed “wide-eyed wandered” he always wanted to travel and see the world! When he first set out on his travel journey the lack of diversity in the outdoor and travel sphere inspired him to start blogging and documenting his travels to encourage other Black and BIPOC folks to feel comfortable and take up space! 

In this episode of The Occupation Wild Podcast, Courtney and Joshua talk crazy travel experiences, Joshua’s budget travel hacks, being Black in the outdoor and travel industry, the history of racism in the outdoors and how that continues today, confronting privilege, and what can be done to make these spaces safer and more welcoming for everyone!
