Leah has travelled the US, Canada and Europe volunteering on organic farms. In this interview she talks about why it\'s a great way to travel, how it provides a unique perspective on a new place, connects you with great people, and builds up a really good appetite. 

\\n

I\'ve found every interview I\'ve done on this podcast inspiring. But after talking to Leah, I\'ve actually booked a few days volunteering on a farm here in England. I love the idea of trying something I\'ve never done before, and getting away from my laptop. I\'ll tell you how I get on in a future episode.
