Jessica Prieto: Productive Travel: Right Way to Make Use of Your Resources | Work in Progress #25

Traveling is one of the most popular activities, whether spontaneous or well-planned. It’s all about creating meaningful experiences while exploring the world.

There’s a powerful connection between travel and personal productivity, which Jessica Fernanda Prieto will delve deep into.

Meet Jessica Fernanda Prieto

Jessica Fernanda Prieto is the founder of Travel With Curls, a travel platform that connects individuals from around the globe who share an interest in exploring new places and cultures. At 18 years old, she established three different businesses in different countries. Her mission is to bridge people, places, and cultures.

Jessica’s role model is the iconic Bruce Lee, known for his mental strength and ability to challenge norms. She draws inspiration from “The One Thing,” a book that transformed her perspective on specialization and growth. “Crazy Rich Asians” is also her favorite due to its story of breaking stereotypes.

Her multicultural background has taught her the value of fostering connections with people from all walks of life, leading her to learn about diverse cultures and languages.

About the episode

In this episode, hosted by Dina Sargeant, guest Jessica emphasizes that travel should be more than just ticking off landmarks – it’s about understanding people’s ways of life and uniting cultures.

Jessica highlights adaptability and stepping out of your comfort zone as crucial factors. Based on her experiences, she discusses how living out of a suitcase for years has boosted her self-assurance and ability to interact with strangers. 

To maximize your travel productivity, Jessica recommends thorough planning. This includes researching your destination, learning the local language, and understanding cultural norms – all of which contribute to a seamless and enjoyable travel experience. Safety and intuition are also paramount, especially for solo travelers.

Flexibility is key. Jessica encourages having a travel outline rather than a strict itinerary. This allows room for spontaneity and authentic experiences. 

In conclusion

Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or embarking on your first adventure, having a well-planned trip will undoubtedly improve your experience. By planning and packing smartly, you can make the most of your travels and immerse yourself in the local culture.
