- Places & Travel
On this episode of Passport to Everywhere, Melissa Biggs Bradley welcomes Steven Shalowitz, an experienced international traveler and host of the One Way Ticket podcast. Over the past ten years, he’s been interviewing thought leaders in business, travel, art and entertainment around one question: “If I gave you a one-way ticket, where would you go?”
The conversation kicks off with a discussion of Steven's experiences before starting One Way Ticket, and then moves into his intrepid travels to Syria and Iraq, as Steven shares his insights into the culture and people of these regions, as well as his thoughts on the importance of understanding the complexity of international perceptions and their impact on local communities. Melissa and Steven also touch on the importance of respectful behavior as a traveler, and strategies for sorting through travel photos, and the interview concludes with a discussion of dream destinations, as Melissa ponders what her answer might be when she joins Steven on his show.
On this week’s Travel Hacks, Melissa pulls from her many trips to highlight the benefits of airport meet & greets and how and when to use this service.
