This week\'s episode features Samantha Patil is the Co-Founder and CEO of Well Traveled -- A members-only travel platform that is filled with like-minded people who have the hook up to a perfect trip.

\\n

This is a place where people can go to get recommendations, plan trips, and get little discounts along the way. Samantha is on a mission to change the way people travel. She is highlighting the perks that make taking a trip memorable, exciting, and full of adventure. Where work remote is inevitable, she has created a platform where people can stop creating excuses and start living in the now.

\\u201cTravel has been part of my life since I was very young (I took my first international flight at just six months old!) and it\'s something I am truly passionate about sharing with others. My mom built her career as a travel agent and my dad traveled three weeks out of the month for work so you could say travel is truly in my DNA. I love exploring new places but always hated wasting hours researching and never being able to find recommendations for the types of things I wanted to do, from people I could relate to. The idea for Well Traveled was born. So if you\'re someone who prefers to travel more like a local and less like a tourist, Well Traveled is for you. Now I may be just a little bit biased, but I think you\'re going to love it.\\u201d -Samantha
