    =============================

    What makes a destination off-limits? Is it a visa issue, or is it a hidden history? In this powerful podcast, I go into a profoundly personal travel story that goes beyond simple geopolitics. I explore the complex reasons why I've chosen not to travel to Pakistan (for now), from visa complications to a family history rooted in the 1971 genocide. You will discover the untold story of the Bangladesh-Pakistan conflict and how it continues to impact personal identity and travel decisions today.

    Where is Macao? I had the pleasure of travelling around this region, a SAR of China, exploring the city's unique blend of cultures, showcasing both its Las Vegas-like Cotai Strip and its historic Portuguese and Chinese influences.

    You'll see some of the city's most famous sights, including the replica of the Eiffel Tower and Big Ben, and learn about the city's economy, which is driven by its booming casino industry. You'll also understand transportation, and I'll highlight some must-try local food, such as Portuguese egg tarts and African Chicken.
