Hello Everyone! This week I got to Interview the Where There Be Dragons Director of Student Education Aaron Slosberg about Travel Post Pandemic, Sustainable travel, working in experiential education and gap years! This episode is packed with valuable travel advice. I know that I learned a bunch from Aaron and I hope you do too and feel inspired by this episode. 

Hey New Age Nomads and Welcome to Part 2 of the Global Citizen Year fellow interveiw! In this segment the fellows touch on different highlights and low lights on their GCY's and share lots of stories and lessons from the road. They also touch on how GCY prepares or doesn't prepare students for struggles and issues while abroad which leads into a conversation regarding race and sexual orientation or preference. Even if you havn't taken or aren't planning on taking a GCY, the information and advice they share in this episode will be helpful for any new age nomad thinking about a gap year or their next travel experience.  Hope you enjoy the episode!

PS If you want to get in touch with any of the fellows in the episode to ask questions here is where you can find them!

Hey New Age Nomads!

I'm so excited to share our first podcast episode with you all. In this episode I interviewed 4 Global Citizen Year fellows, one from each location, on their experiences and stories from their gap year.  Alex spent her GCY in India, Hunter went to Ecuador, Ruby went to Senegal and Natalie went to Brazil. Even if you are not interested in a GCY or have not done one in the past, the advice and insight they had on gap years and living abroad will apply to most everyone who is interested in travel and/or gap years. I decided to split this episode up into 2 segments because they all had so much valuable information to share. This episode, Part 1, is mostly about the overview of there experiences with GCY, their home-stays, apprenticeships and challenges with language. Part 2 will be focusing more on lessons and challenges with their gap year experience, as well as advice future GCY fellows and gap year students. Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy the show!
