Jo Franco is a powerhouse multilingual content creator, writer, and entrepreneur who’s all about turning curiosity into action.
You might know her as one of the lead travel presenters on Netflix’s The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals, where she helps us to explore the globe through the lens of understanding… cultural connection… and crazy cool rentals. But that’s just the beginning!
Jo’s a self-taught language maestro who’s conquered seven languages—yep, seven!
AND she’s used her love of words, language and culture to inspire over a million subscribers on YouTube and countless listeners through her hit podcasts: Not Your Average Jo and Money Baggage.
NOW… she’s also the bestselling author of Fluentish - a wildly innovative language learning planner and journal.
And speaking of journaling… Jo’s also the founder of JoClub—a journaling school… that’s become a global movement. She’s a relentless advocate for blending creativity, community, and curiosity to live a bold and intentional life.
Jo’s story is a testament to what happens when you dream big, think differently, and DO the work.
