Women Who Travel | Condé Nast Traveler - A podcast by Condé Nast Traveler - Thursdays

The Amazon lives in our imaginations, in literature, and throughout swathes of travel writing. But what is it like to live there? Lale chats with journalist Eliane Brum who's built a house from recycled wood in Altamira, a town on the northern fringes of the Amazon, to find out more—and to learn about her new book, Banzeiro Òkòtó: The Amazon as the Center of the World. Plus, Condé Nast Traveler editor Megan Spurrell tells us about a life-changing trip to an equally spectacular yet vulnerable place: Antarctica.
