Episode 35 of Travel Bubble is with Hattie Seal, co-founder and director of Travelling Whale, a company that specialises in locally-sourced, sustainable holidays. As well as being an industry professional, Hattie, is also well-travelled herself, having completed a round-the-world 18-month adventure back in 2015.

From caravan holidays and trips to Norfolk as a child, speaking from Hackney, East London, she recollects getting the travel bug after receiving postcards from around the globe from her dad, an aircraft engineer.

In this podcast, we get some invaluable tips from how to budget when it comes to travelling the world, how to seek out the best food, avoid being rogued by taxi drivers and the benefits of group tours.

Hattie’s choices include two destinations from the same continent, a tale of being in a tight squeeze in a cave while trying not to extinguish a candle and where you can get possibly the cheapest tacos in the world.
