About this listen
Travel isn’t just movement. It’s observation. Interpretation. Translation.
In this episode, Amanda sits down with travel writer Rebecca Hall to explore what it really means to experience a place, not as a tourist, but as a listener.
Rebecca shares how travel writing has shaped her understanding of culture, particularly through her time in Greece. Together, they reflect on the subtle (and sometimes stark) differences in communication styles between Greek and British cultures, and what those differences reveal about how we connect, express emotion, and make meaning.
This isn’t a checklist of destinations. It’s a conversation about perspective.
You’ll hear:
-
What travel teaches us about ourselves
-
The nuances of cultural communication, directness, warmth, restraint
-
Why understanding context matters more than surface impressions
-
Practical considerations for visiting Greece, from someone who’s lived it, not skimmed it
For women building lives and businesses that cross borders, emotionally or geographically, this conversation is a reminder that the way we communicate shapes the stories we tell and the stories we tell shape how we’re understood.
