For the Season 2 finale, Paige speaks to Bruce Poon Tip, who is both the founder of a major adventure travel company and an executive producer of “The Last Tourist,” an award-winning documentary that makes the case for why we need to dramatically rethink the way we travel.
Bruce shares the film’s origin story and explains why he wanted the movie to convey a message of hope: that travel — done right — can bring wealth into some of the world’s poorest areas, creating jobs and alleviating poverty.
Bruce also talks about G Adventures, the travel company he founded in 1990, and shares the company’s innovative approach to making sure they give back to the communities they visit.
Plus, listen up for a (somewhat spicy) language lesson in Greek!
That’s a wrap on Season 2! Thank you so much for listening. We hope you’ll follow along on Instagram or Twitter to stay in the loop for Season 3!
