This episode delves into the unique experiences of our amazing guest, Lydia Chu, who grew up as a Third Culture Kid (TCK). TCKs are people who have spent a significant portion of their formative years living in cultures other than their parents' original culture - but as we've learned throughout the years, definition of a TCK can vary.

The episode explores how this multicultural upbringing has shaped the way Lydia approaches travel. We discuss topics such as cultural adaptability, global perspective, and travel style.

Thank you, Lydia, for your time and insight!

Barcelona. Venice. Paris. Amsterdam. Bali. Machu Picchu. The Great Barrier Reef. These are all popular tourist destinations - maybe even TOO popular. How has overtourism impacted a city? Is overtourism a pro or a con?

During Leah’s most recent travels to the Netherlands, she hung out with friends that lived outside of the popular, Amsterdam. A large discussion was had when they told her about the minor changes being done to prevent more overtourism in the city. This led to learning and hearing more from locals, articles, etc. about the impacts of what tourism can do for the people living there. 

What are your thoughts of overtourism while traveling, and what feasible suggestion(s) do you have to help combat the negative effects of it?
