Travel Won’t Change Your Life—Unless You Let It | Paula Barnes
Description
Can changing your location change who you become?
In this episode of Thought Atlas, I’m joined by Paula Barnes—traveler, entrepreneur, and founder of Truly Expat Travel.
Having spent years exploring life beyond her home country, Paula has learned that travel is about far more than collecting passport stamps. Living abroad challenges assumptions, expands perspective, and invites us to rethink identity, belonging, and the ways we relate to other people and cultures.
Together, we explore:
• Living abroad
• The deeper purpose of travel
• Cultural curiosity
• Identity and belonging
• Building a life outside your comfort zone
• Personal growth through new experiences
• The challenges and rewards of expat life
• Human connection across cultures
• What travel teaches us about ourselves
• Creating a life filled with curiosity
This isn’t simply a conversation about travel.
It’s a conversation about how new places can change the way we see ourselves, other people, and the world.
