In our season finale, I’m excited to introduce to you our remarkable guest, Becca Siegel, one-half of the dynamic duo behind Half Half Travel.
An Asian Trip to Remember
She is a passionate traveler who began her adventures when she studied abroad in Hong Kong at the age of 20. This experience ignited her love for travel and she went on to explore various countries in Asia. Coming back to New York, she met Dan, who also shared her passion for travel and the rest they say is history.
Becca is a storyteller who loves sharing her travel experiences and providing tips to fellow travelers. Join me as we learn more about Becca as she embarks on new adventures around the world +2.
