S2 Episode 8: At Your Leisure – Bound by the Cloak
Sojourner White is a travel blogger who has been featured on Buzzfeed, Travel + Leisure, USA Today, PopSugar and more. Traveling the world may be easy for some, but for others it may be a little more difficult to navigate. Some may or may not take in to account racism, discrimination, sexism or other experiences that they may encounter while traveling. In this episode Sojourner tells us about how traveling solo, as a woman and being a minority has shaped the way she sees the world and travels throughout it.
