O's Odyssey

In this week's episode, we interview venture capitalist and founder of Backstage Capital, Arlan Hamilton, at the Black Communities Conference in Durham, NC. In between me gushing over this esteemed founder, Arlan gives us insight as to why Sardines have the advantage on planning the trip details, why her mom is BOSS level traveller, if newlywed life has impacted her travel plans and why "Shane is her homegirl."   Thank you, Chacho and Arlan for being so gracious with your time.  Please send any travel questions you have to '[email protected]' or find us on IG, Twitter and Facebook.  #SardinesLLC  Thanks for listening!

This week, in anticipation of the upcoming annual trip organized and sponsored by Destination Dubai VIP and The Shade Room, friend and travel buddy, Makeda Parker, and I reminisce on our 2017 experience.  We made a couple of stops and friends along the way in London and Amsterdam, and we even share our tips on how to maximize the time spent in each place.  She also shares her misadventures at the Dubai Mall which thankfully did NOT get her arrested.  Please send any travel questions you have to '[email protected]' or find us on IG, Twitter, and Facebook. #SardinesLLC  Thanks for listening!
