S5 Ep85: What Does it Mean to Travel “Home?”

Curious Tourism: Responsible Travel Podcast

Oct 26 2022 • 59 mins

For immigrants and the generations that follow them, traveling back to a “home” country can be a complicated experience. For some, visiting a place that their parents, grandparents, or generations even further back left by choice, or fled, can bring happiness and learning. But for others, it might bring conflicted feelings.

Leah from the Ticket 2 Anywhere podcast joins Erin to talk about her experience of traveling for the first time to her homeland, The Philippines.
