In this week's episode we touch down in London to tune into a panel talk we hosted around Solo Travel in partnership with On Running's Point Two series. ’Point Two’ celebrates those who have the mindset to go the distance. No matter your goals, Point Two is for those who are looking for inspiration around every corner. 

To us taking a solo trip is at the heart of the Point Two mindset. Surprisingly, 84% of solo travellers are women and 86% are over 35 showing that solo travel is a field that young people have yet to properly explore. So what’s stopping us?

Through out the episode our host and Trippin co founder Kesang are joined by Trippin family Peigh Asante and Tim Shieff to bring us their wild solo travel stories, how their identities impacted their trips and what advice they wished they’d know. 

In our newest podcast series, we take you on an immersive audio experience, exploring the spirited rituals, lifestyles and practices that connect cultures worldwide. Alongside local and leading experts, Trippin’s co-founder Yasmin Shahmir and producer Robyn Landau, uncover the origins and delve into the science behind traditions rooted in physical and spiritual wellbeing. Learning about how these practices have travelled and are ever evolving to embrace the needs of individuals and communities to this day.

Episode 007 is a much-anticipated conversation with the founders of the much-loved and renowned Rampage Sound System. Rampage hosts the largest static sound system at Notting Hill Carnival and 25 years later still holds the title for being the most talked about system with an impressive crowd of approximately 330,000 over the 2 days. It is also the only sound to host an entire street. Heading to Rampage is well-known to be guaranteed absolute carnage.

Get in the spirit of Carnival by listening in on Yasmin and the team of Rampage reminisce over fond and hilarious memories, that we are all bound to have if you're a Londoner.

In this episode, Yasmin speaks to Andrés Saavedra about the art of sustainable living and how stories can be told through the use of space. Born on farmland on the outskirts of Mexico City, Andrés grew up around his grandparents who had a deep relationship with the land around them. To describe himself, Andrés prefers the term ‘storyteller’, his medium of telling stories? Spaces. From homes, hotels, restaurants and even point breaks, he strives to build the perfect settings for great experiences to occur.

This conversation was recorded on location at the coordinates of his current project, Musa, an untouched stretch of jungle meets coastline along the Pacific Ocean where he plans to build both a dream destination and live-able community powered by adventure, creativity, tradition and connection to the natural world.​
