This week we're in conversation with Michela Consiglio, the founder of Ukulele Safari!
Michela shares how the Ukulele Community saved her life, and inspired her to combine her passion for the ukulele with her job as a safari guide - to create Ukulele Safari!
She also gives her unique perspective on the world, talks about her idea for a ukulele board game, how she put her neighbours' children through school by selling jewellery made out of old CDs, and asks why there's no good Google search results for "How do you get rid of a 5 tonne hippopotamus?"
If you have any thoughts, comments or guest suggestions for the show please send me a message to UkeTeacher@GrabYourUke.com
