The Power of Storytelling in Mindful Travel | Amit Jaipuria from Postcard

Today I have the pleasure of having Amit Jaipuria, the Founder and Chief Experience Designer at Postcard, as my guest.

Postcard is a travel media platform that aims to bring together a global community of stakeholders interested in promoting mindful travel through storytelling.

The platform's mission is to build a global database of local travel stories and inspire people to travel with empathy and understanding, and to demand more sustainable and inclusive practices from their travel experiences.

In this episode, we will be discussing the importance of connecting across borders, the story behind Postcard, and how AI is playing a role in the future of travel.

Join me as I explore the future of travel and learn about the power of storytelling to connect us and inspire empathy.

Veslemøy Klavenes-Berge

Geophysicist by formal education, with a background within mobile satellite communication and the oil and gas industry. I did a 180 degree pivot in my career in 2016 and have since then focused all my energy and time to explore how we can have the optimal combination of the three pillars;
a good life - an interesting job - a healthy planet.
I have a strong sense of urgency when it comes to the huge challenges we are facing in the years to come, especially when it comes to climate change, but I strongly believe in the potential in people to step up and do the work when it is really needed.
That time is now.
