Travel Along With Laura
Join host Laura Lisensky as she explores the world! As much about storytelling as it is about travel recommendations, this podcast will immerse you in the sound and experience of discovering a place for the first time. Her travel style varies-sometimes its solo travel, sometimes its travel with kids, but you can always count on an adventure. Laura is a biology and environmental science teacher who strives to travel responsibly and dives into local foods, culture and experiences. She travels with her recorder, grabbing audio as she goes, never sure what will happen next- so you really are travelling along with her!

Vietnam 4: Phu Quoc- Paradise With a Catch
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Laura and Carrie arrive on Phu Quoc expecting paradise but quickly discover an island full of contradictions. Between sunrise swims, snorkeling adventures with "Jack Sparrow," fish sauce factories, pepper farms, incredible local food, and a few tourist traps, they experience both the best and the most frustrating sides of Vietnam's fastest-changing island. As first impressions evolve into a deeper appreciation, join Laura and Carrie on a journey through the highs, lows, and unexpected moments that made Phu Quoc truly unforgettable.
