In this episode we speak to Catherine Livesley, founder of No Fly Travel Club. Speaking remotely from Brixton in London, Catherine explains why she set up the company which focuses on sustainable, overland travel, and where her passion for rail journeys began.
When choosing her Travel Bubble destinations, Catherine talks about a location so unique it inspired the Avatar movie, why she has chosen a country that is often negatively represented, a place that offers three coffees to visitors, and her reasonings for being an advocate of plans that go wrong.
Also listen out for a slight change in today’s episode in honour of a more environmentally-friendly way to travel.
