Podcast: “Thinking Local, Going Global”

Date Dec 26, 2024
Published in Currents

Whether it’s just a pop across the border into Tijuana, a cruise along the Rhine, backpacking through Nepal or visiting relatives in Uganda, there’s nothing quite like the full-body culture shock of international travel.

In this episode, three Aquarium adventurers share life-altering experiences from their international sojourns. We’ll chat about the joy of watching cheetahs learning to hunt in Kenya, visiting sustainable fisheries in the Amazon and the stark, otherworldly beauty of the Antarctic Peninsula.

Grab your passport, pack a toothbrush, and let’s go!
