"That idea that there are walls around me never existed... There's a humanity that unites us all." - Zach Glassman Two years ago, Zach Glassman left his job in corporate finance to make travel a bigger priority in his life, and the experience he had was transformative. Rather than ever come back to play the role of the person he was before he left, just last year he founded Passion Passport, a community of storytellers, photographers, and explorers — coming together around a mutual passion for travel. Zach grew up following his father in Central America after his parents met in Guatemala, and so ongoing travel has been a normality in his life for as far back as it goes. Nowadays, the community he’s fostering is in line with you, and the listeners of this show, and I’m excited to sort of unite the tribes around a shared love of meaningful experience and exposure to the complexities of the world. What We Cover: How being born into a family that's open to new experiences helped shape Zach's principles about travel and founding Passion Passport. Zach and I dive deep to explore the heart of why travel matters and our shared philosophies around the value of experiencing the complexity of the world. What is the Bucket List initiative and how is it helping people change their lives through travel?
