Shownotes

Angèle is from Provence in the south of France and based in Lisbon in between her travels. About 3 years ago, she left everything behind, booked a one-way ticket to Thailand and left with nothing else than a backpack and a camera. With no plan, no itinerary, no contact she started wandering around Asia where she kept meeting amazing people making a difference for our planet or for others. She decided to turn this adventure into a mission to meet these changemakers and tell their stories through photography and video, on social media. What was to be a 3 months trip turned into a 13 months adventure, backpacking around 13 countries! That's how her project was born: Bloom. Since then, she decided to look for as many hidden heroes all around the world as possible, shine a light on what they are doing, and help them through crowdfunding campaigns when they need help to keep making the world a better place. She believes that the world is filled with good people, and that they deserve their stories to be told to inspire and give hope to the rest of the world. Because as the Dalai Lama says: "The planet does not need more 'successful people.' The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds."
