Reinventure Travel Can Change Your Life
Host: The Calgary Zoo
Travel allows us to reinvent ourselves over and over. Carol Patterson, former Calgary Zoo trustee and author of
Reinventure: How Travel Adventure Can Change Your Life believes no one comes home unchanged. Formerly an oil accountant, Carol used travel to create a new career as an ecotourism planner. Carol has been lost in Oyen, crashed a dogsled, and pursued by elephants, but she has never looked back. She will share stories from Africa, Iceland, and Borneo, and show how your life can be reinvigorated through travel.
When: Thursday, April 30 7pm
Where: Calgary Zoo's Discovery Center
