If you’re enjoying all of the stories we shared so far, we want to reintroduce you to another podcast: Travel Tales by AFAR. 

Hosted by AFAR Deputy Editor Aislyn Greene, Travel Tales explores the way that travel shapes us. Each episode follows a storyteller who took a trip—and came home transformed. In their new season, they’re getting back on the road to share the real stories and sounds from recent trips.  

We’re sharing one episode with you today. Hear comedian Esteban Gast reflect upon a recent trip to Cartagena as he travels through Colombia without his parents  for the first time ever. Along the way, he unpacks his own relationship with his Colombian heritage and define what it means to be Colombian for himself.
