  • Yay for authentic conversation!

    I really love the concept of this podcast and the few episodes I’ve listened to so far! Traveling to different places to meet people is also refreshing in this age of video chat from different locations. By traveling to people’s homes you learn more about them and the conversation can be that much richer! Looking forward to more listening!
