Rachel recently worked with Global Guardians as a journalist to help write a story about the important work they’re doing; stopping the spread of animal poaching in South Africa.

Welcome to Travel Worth Living! I want this to be a candid place where I can have genuine conversations about travel with people who inspire me. I'm going to be talking with influencers, world travelers, and locals on the upcoming episodes, and I'm so excited to share these conversations with you.  I'd love to hear from you as well, so please get in touch with me on Instagram or Facebook, or on the web at TravelWorthLiving.com. This episode was made possible by Trippaly, an online tour site that fosters authentic cross-cultural connections. Be sure to check them out at Trippaly.com.
