Summer has us thinking about travel… about vacations, beach trips, BBQs and picnics, starry nights in the great outdoors, and exploring other countries. But also, it has us thinking about what makes travel special - the people you visit, and the people you travel with. So, in this episode, two stories about trips and sojourns in which the meaning and memories are made because of friends and family.
This episode was hosted by Sarah Austin Jenness.
Storytellers:
Caroline Connolly spends a summer with her grandma - drinking coffee, strolling the mall and making memories.
