We are two years into this global pandemic that has changed whether and how we travel. With some countries now loosening travel restrictions, we’re in a bit of a confusing time. It’s becoming possible to travel again, but it isn’t becoming less complicated. We unpack the current state of the pandemic and what it means for travel in 2022 with Emily Scott from @TwoDustyTravelers.

GUEST:
Emily Scott is a Registered Nurse based in Seattle and has served on humanitarian medical missions and disaster response teams in eight countries, including treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone, and deploying to Nepal after the 2015 earthquake. On Instagram, she shares her insights on the pandemic from her perspective as a nurse, and does an amazing job of explaining complicated and sciency concepts in ways that make sense to regular folks like us!
