In this fascinating solo episode, Clare talks about one of her favourite topics, migration. People have been migrating for thousands of years, which is one of the reasons the topic is so fascinating. But, today, it is modern migration Clare takes a look at. Using her own experiences and what her guests and other migrants have told her she outlines the 5 main reasons people migrate and leave the familiar behind.
She looks at the role transport, remote working, technology, education, the financial needs of families, evolving societal norms, and changing expectations are playing in modern migration.
