I left this interview feeling more connected to the world and felt like I had traveled around the world as well. Mag is a magnificent storyteller and has made traveling a center piece to her life and marrying those two things is wonderful to experience. We chat about:
How she got the travel bug at 11 years old when she lived in Italy for 3 years Why she started journaling as an outlet from her difficult upbringing Feeling at home in many places abroad What travel allowed her to find out about herself How connection is important for what she feels makes a place feel like home Innate traits that we all possess as humans that she discovered in travel The importance of journaling in her adventures Common themes that arose in her journaling showing what she values in experiences The impact that her grandmother had on her instilling compassion in her Translating her journals to the book that she wrote, “Bowing to Elephants” How a moving experience with Elephants led to the title of her book Getting into meditation later in life after a masseuse advised her to How to forgive deeply and how she forgave her mother Her favorite food and country around the world Loving Kindness meditation to conclude!
