A partnership with The Moth and Expedia.
2020 may have required many of us to press pause on our immediate travel plans, but at The Moth we know that there's no stopping wanderlust. In celebration of the adventures you've taken in the past, the excursions you will take again in the future and all those unpredictable moments in between The Moth and Expedia have teamed up to bring you Near and Far: Stories of Exploration. Below, we invite you to join us in sharing your own unexpected 2020 travel stories as well as listen to a playlist of stories that come to you from all around the world.
