Started as a pandemic โcomfort projectโ but growing into something so much more, Coffee and Geography was a podcast where I simply chatted to people. These chats led to exploring connections and intersections through a geographical lens, but also helped to broaden my horizons, check my own privilege, and bring back some faith in humanity. Bring a brew and come and find out what Iโve learnt, which can be useful anecdotes and aids in the classroom, from these โeverydayโ conversations.
