Elsie Paulino joins Matt in person in New York City for this
conversation over a bottle of French wine, and they start talking about the
recent WITS Travel Creator Summit that they both attended in NYC. Elsie then talks about her parents story immigrating to the U.S. from the Dominican Republic and her experience growing up in an immigrant home in the NYC-area. She reflects on navigating the milieu of Blackness in the U.S. as an Afro-Latina and also the dynamics of anti-Blackness in the DR. Next, she explains how her interest in world travel developed and shares her journey studying abroad in Sicily in high school and Vienna in College. Elsie then shares travel stories from Sri Lanka, India, Vietnam, Strasbourg, and attending the closing ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
