Zoe Daniel is returning to Australia with her family after finishing her four year stint as Washington Bureau Chief for ABC News. In that time she has travelled from Alaska to Washington and to 44 states from one side of the United States to the other. But as well as her Washington posting, this brave storyteller has worked on the frontline of some of the world's worst disasters and most protracted conflicts. On this episode of The Journo Project podcast she tells us about the life of a foreign correspondent and her love for speaking to real people on the ground at each of her varied postings, from Africa, to Thailand, and finally the USA. Zoe also talks about what coping mechanisms she has developed over the years when covering disasters and dealing with communities in shock, and then having to bring those stories back to the Australian community.
