Do you ever stop to ponder the role your personal identity and culture play in your travel experience? How about the role travel plays in your identity and culture?Â
This week travel expert, vlogger, speaker, and influencer, Ravi Roth, shares the unique insight he’s gained in traveling to 34 countries with the goal of exploring and embracing Queer culture for his new travel series Ravi Round The World.
Listen now to get a first-hand account of how Queer culture and Pride have manifested throughout the world, learn about some of the best destinations and must-do festivals around the globe, gain insight into the ever-changing meaning and experience surrounding Pride, and be inspired to make a difference in the world.
How have you come to understand your own identity better through the lens of travel? I’d love to hear your insights and hope you will share them by sending me an audio message.
