Horizons: Shared Connections Through Storytelling

Horizons: Shared Connections Through Storytelling

By Kristina Chan

These are not the stories you are used to. A+B by no means equals C. There’s No once upon a time, No on a dark and stormy night. Instead, we jump right in. Into the remote and the wild. And go from there.

This is a podcast about place: What lies just beyond the edge of understanding, around that next turn, and of course, the road not travelled. Each season represents a different place. Each remote and holds its own magic, in the stories and myths of the land. So what are we waiting for? Let's dive in!

These are not the stories you are used to. A+B by no means equals C. There’s No once upon a time, No on a dark and stormy night. Instead, we jump right in, into the remote and wild, and go from there.  Horizons is a podcast about place: about the routes we take to find ourselves.  It visits far off lands and steps in and out of minor history and local lore, weaves personal narrative and collective memory into an elaborate portrait.
