For history lovers, those who work in the heritage tourism industry, and anyone wanting to learn more about the world we live in. Bitesize episodes so you can listen on the go. We'll look at places, buildings, people, cultures and events throughout time and the legacies they've left behind. We'll also be featuring longer shows with interviews, content marketing tips specifically aimed at heritage organisations and deep dives into interesting topics. Feedback, suggestions and guest requests (either on my show or yours) all welcome, so please get in touch (https://gudrunlauret.com/contact-form/), and if you enjoyed an epsiode, let me know on Twitter (https://twitter.com/GudrunLauret).
