In this pilot episode of Let's Talk Travel, host April Watson introduces the show and shares her own path into travel — from a study-abroad semester in Moscow as a 19-year-old Russian studies major, through years as a strategy consultant in Moscow, Paris, and San Francisco, to becoming a Virtuoso-affiliated travel advisor alongside her husband, Warren.

It's a candid first look at who's behind the mic — and why April believes travel might be the most transformative purchase you'll ever make.
