In our 40th and final episode of 2020, Tamara and Shannon reflect on a year without travel (or at least much travel) and talk about what this coming year will look like for us personally and for the travel industry at large. We reminisce about the last places we traveled to pre-COVID, consider the closest we got to “getting away” during lockdown, share ways we’ve kept the spirit of wanderlust alive through gift giving and make some predictions for 2021. From window swaps to new bicycles, canceled flights to virtual cooking classes - 2020 wasn’t what anyone had imagined and frankly we’re glad it’s over, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t some lessons learned and small victories (like Shannon’s inclusion in Accidentally Wes Anderson). Perhaps what is most exciting is what we have planned for 2021. We'll be launching a workshop series, Intentional Travel, covering different themes for mindful travelers. From Antiracist Travel to Intentional Travel Influencing; Intentional Family or Group Travel to Ethical Travel to the Caribbean and Mexico, we’ll explore these themes and more in an interactive, virtual setting, giving attendees the tools they desire to make the most of their travels in 2021.
