Description

In episode #13 of Roots of Humanity, Sara Omar, a passionate traveler and TV Host, tells Drew what it was like to host him in Saudi Arabia, his final destination on his journey to visit every country in the world. Sara will be the first to tell you that Saudi is not what you think, and she is here to show you the side of it that the media doesn’t want you to see. Not only is it safe, but the rapidly growing tourism sector is the most impressive and sustainable in the world. In just a couple of years, Saudi went from being one of the hardest countries to visit, to opening the gates with new tourist visas and hotel resorts. Sara shares her mission to encourage more women to travel solo, an idea that is new for Saudi Arabia. Even still, Saudi is not as male-dominated as it once was, and Sara is a prime example. Women have empowered themselves in the workplace and gained the freedom to drive, something Sara is still learning. So tune in for practical tips on how to respect different cultures as a traveler, how to sleep in the desert like the Bedouin tribes, and how to eat delicious dates the Saudi way.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
