Hello, thoughtful traveller!
I’m Amanda, and it’s great to have you here. (You can subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and publication archives - free and paid options). I’ve run The Thoughtful Travel Podcast since 2016 and love talking about how we can travel better, and become better.
Who am I?
At heart, I’m just an average lover of travel who gets a thrill from landing in new places and loves to tell stories of the people I meet or the interesting differences I discover.
But because I can get a bit obsessed with the things I love, I’ve taken this travel passion a bit further. After writing for magazines and my NotABallerina blog for two decades (and I still do both, from time to time), my favourite way to spread the word is through The Thoughtful Travel Podcast. You can look it up in any podcast app or click through the Apple or Spotify links below.
If you haven’t listened to the podcast before, I think you’ll find it’s a bit different to many. Most episodes centre on a theme that’s relevant to thoughtful travel, and include chats with several different guests about it. Occasionally, I’ll speak to a particularly amazing and relevant guest for a whole episode, and sometimes when I travel, I’ll also bring you episodes about those trips - and how I’ve tried to travel thoughtfully.
