"When you are a traveler, you empathize with the locals"- Marcel Fernandez
I'm a huge fan of what Marcela Fernandez is up to.
After dropping out of several universities around the world and designing her own education, she founded On Board, a education program that lets you create your curriculum through global travel.
She is also a TEDx speaker, Flow consultant, entrepreneur, and Adventurer.
In this episode we dive into what you can learn through travel and some of the amazing experiences that Marcela has had around the world, including the "gift moment" - where Marcela experienced a flow state through giving her sunglasses to a young girl while traveling, and how Marcela became a coffee exporter.
Make sure you listen in to the second half of the episode where Marcela breaks down the eight flow moments, and how you can achieve them, as well as what the gift economy is and how to participate.
If you have ever been curious about what you can learn from world travel to enhance your education and contribution to the world, or how to achieve optimal experiences (Flow), this is the episode for you!
What you will learn in this episode:
-How travel can be your university
-What kind of business opportunities come from curated travel
-What is the gift economy and how you can participate
-What are the 8 moments of flow and how you can experience them
-What are some great gifts you can take when you travel
