#17 Why Should Our Region Be More Than Just a Fling?

  • Summary

  • And now for real — with a new jingle that will simplify our production, we are entering the third season of the SEE AFRICA BREATHE AFRICA weekly podcast!

    Are you one of those travellers who like to seriously consider their impact on the area they visit? Or do you prefer taking it as lightly as a one-night stand? Ever thought of how the duration of one's stay in Africa could affect the environment, culture and local people in general? But do you lack time or resources for a prolonged summer romance? This episode discusses how your trip can bring positive results while adding to your fun along the way.
