Travel has changed a LOT over the past 10 years.

In fact, a lot has changed in these past few years - through and after the pandemic.

In this episode, Sahara talks with Marilyn about how we can truly be participants in sustainable travel - and what it means to "Leave No Trace."

Marilyn Ball has 25 + years marketing experience in the tourism, economic development and hospitality industries and began Speaking of Travel in 2013 to incorporate her love of travel and adventure with a portal for great storytelling.

She helps to raise awareness of natural environments by creating a support network so we can all become more aware global citizens.

She is also the author of the book, "The Rise of Asheville: An Exceptional History of Community Building."

Ever dream about quitting your job to travel full-time? That's exactly what Julie did.

Bitten by the solo travel bug at a young age, Julie B. Rose became a full-time nomad in 2020 when she sold her house and 98% of her belongings to travel 24-7.

Since then, her nomadic lifestyle has taken her across all 50 states and Mexico, and almost every country in Western and Eastern Europe.

Julie has visited 31 countries (and counting!) to date, and typically spends 10-11 months of the year outside of the U.S.

She loves to share her experiences and perspectives on her blog and social media, showing others that a life with more travel is both fulfilling AND attainable... and she also loves to share her travel experience and destination expertise with clients, bringing their #travelinspo to life and creating immersive and life changing moments they'll never forget.

In this episode, I talk with Kendyl Grender about budget travel, staying true to yourself, and building a travel business with integrity.

At some point, we all need to make decisions about collaborations, brand partnerships, growth, and more - and we need to make those decisions from our values.

You'll hear exactly how Kendyl does that in this episode.

Kendyl Grender grew up in a family that considered travel "for rich people." Until she studied abroad in 2013, she had no idea how small her world literally was. Making just $34,000 a year out of graduate school, she made a commitment to see as much of the world as possible.

She became a savvy budget travel hacker, traveling to 23 countries and 36 US states with her husband, Aspen, for less than $36,000 over the past 5 years.

Now, Kendyl shares her budget travel hacking knowledge to help others save money and travel more, breaking down the same misconceptions she once had about her own inability to afford to travel.
