This week on Travelling Through Life: A Podcast on the Go I chat with the hilarious and enthusiastic Heather from Nova Scotia, Canada. We talk about everything from growing up on the East Coast, with family road trips to Ottawa and DisneyWorld, to falling into international teaching and living on nearly every continent, to sketchy flight situations in South Sudan, and getting tattoo’d around the world. Heather had story after wild story to share on the podcast, along with a lot of really helpful travel tips. Enjoy!
