Yikes!  There was a lot to share after the first stop on our 3rd trip.  In this episode, Keith reconnects with Kwame to talk about all the special places he visited in Ghana.  Keith and Taylor talk about a “homecoming” vibe, history, and more. 

As an added bonus, we have a friend of the show come on and share the story of Ethical Apparel Africa (https://www.ethicalapparelafrica.com/), which was one of the best stops we made in Ghana.  It’s a long episode, but worth it!

Why don’t you stare at people in his hometown?  How can I try to risk my life as we go around the city?   Our last stop is a familiar England, but we’re hoping to get out to see more of the country on this trip.  Inspired by a longtime friend, I think we’ll hit that goal this time.

Risking it all for photo?  A brawl on the train?  Sure... But more importantly papaya salad, great people and bumping into an old, new friend upon arrival. This recap episode has a little bit of everything.  Lao PDR was a great stop!

Egypt has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember.  I was even more excited that Sayed agreed to talk about growing up there.  The work he did after college was unlike any gap year I’ve heard before.  It was all driven by his passion for making Egypt a better place.  He shares the story any more in this episode.

As a photographer in the hip-hop community, I’m always in awe of how supportive it can be.  That is the community that came through with and introduction to BGirl Sindi.  I was already excited for my first visit to Greece, but this turned it up a notch.  

Greece is stop #3 on Loop #3 and I’m pretty sure I’m going to eat ALLLL the food.

The temples, the traffic flow, the food… Cambodia was a great start in Southeast Asia, although we had a somber set of visits planned at the start.  An unexpected surprise certainly lifted our spirits one our second stop.  Taylor and I discuss that and more in this episode.  A lot more, which is why it ran longer than most.
