Welcome back to season 12!
Going Places features weekly interviews with people near and far who make our world better. At the core of it, it's about cultivating hope. And we need that feeling of hope more than ever right now.
Here's a preview of who you're going to meet in Season 12:
- Natasha Hakimi Zapata, an award-winning journalist who wrote a book called Another World is Possible: Lessons for America from Across the World
- Alex Reynolds, a traveler building a radically different hostel in Pakistan’s Ishkoman Valley
- Marie Ostblom from Stockholm Archipelago Trail reminding us about the human right to roam and why we should not be afraid of the forest
Today, I have a BIG announcement to make.
We just launched Going Places as a reader-supported platform. On it, we feature Indigenous art collectives in Algeria and Quechua language guardians from Peru to center and celebrate Indigenous voices and build bridges, not walls.
Reader-supported means that you can be in community with us on this journey. Become a Going Places member for as little as $6 a month and get the perks like getting on a group call with Yulia every month to ask questions, get advice, and be in community with each other.
Visit our reimagined platform at goingplacesmedia.com to learn more.
Thanks to our Founding Member: RISE Travel Institute, a nonprofit with a mission to create a more just and equitable world through travel education.
