Even though there is an increasing knowledge on unethical animal tourism today, there are still too many travelers who unknowingly participate in such activities. Our guest for this episode is Melisa, a Veterinary Technician and an Artist on a mission to make the world a better place for orphaned, injured and rescued animals. Here she shares with us about her experience of working and volunteering at different Animal Sanctuaries in Mexico, UK, Africa and the U.S, and from her experiences she gives us tips on how we can still be in contact with animals, but doing it in a way that is ethical, and respectful for them.

Jade is a French Photographer and Storyteller based in Marrakech. In this episode I wanted to ask her about her experience living and traveling in Africa because we often hear only about the bad side: corruption, war, disease, crime, and poverty. With little else to go on, most people naturally have a negative impression of Africa. 

According to Jade solo female travel in Africa is just like anywhere else. You have to keep yourself safe and get into the right mindset as you would do in any other continent. Instead the reality is that Africa is a continent with incredibly varied and rich cultures, landscapes, and activities that you can only experience there.
