Published: Jan. 26, 2021, 8 a.m.

Welcome back to another episode of Faces of Freelance!

In today's episode I chat with Hannah Ajala travel and journalism.

Hannah Ajala is currently a freelance journalist and has spent the past year travelling across West Africa working on a range of stories and broadcasting for organisations such as the BBC. Hannah is passionate about travel and shedding more light on engaging stories about marginalised communities, which has led her to reports on positive and uplifting international stories. She also runs We Are Black Journos, a platform connecting and supporting Black Journalists.
