The China Travel Podcast is a collection stories and advice from experts around the globe, all tied in to China in one way or another, with the aim of inspiring sustainable travel featuring human stories and cultural exchange.

Each episode we’ll be heading to a different destination in China with a special guest – and when we say a destination it can be as big as a province, as small as a village, or, it may not be a physical location at all but a field of study or simply a way of life.
