This week on Travelling Through Life: A Podcast on the Go I chat with an extraordinary woman named Kaila. She's a recreational therapist from Toronto, Canada who makes the most of her holidays, exploring locally and internationally. We chat about the impact of growing up in a family that hosted international students, which led to her first solo international trip to Colombia at age 14. We also talk about the not-so-great side of travel, like being hospitalized in Thailand. Kaila's curiosity has led her to learn Finnish, Spanish, and how to travel with points and miles. You're going to smile the whole way through this episode!
