I've been MIA for a few weeks I know but with a good excuse! I've been settling into hostel life again, balancing freelance work, hostel work, and enjoying Mexico City. So needless to say, I needed a little break from the podcast, but alas we are back!
Welcome to another episode of the While She's Away Podcast! I had the joy, honor, and privilege of getting to interview Alexis Dean for this episode.
If you don't know Alexis, she is a plus-size traveler, who is taking her life on the road! She's worked in hospitality/tourism for 10 years, living in Alaska for a big part of that time, and is now living the digital nomad life in the midst of a 12-month adventure around the world. 3 years ago she started her blog Have Curves Will Travel with the goal to demystify travel as a woman and bring representation to the plus-size travel community. Now she is a trip leader for a boutique women’s travel company and has been working on venturing into content creation full-time!
In this episode, we chat about:
