Wilson Tauro on South Africa, Travel And Building Futures That Matter

Loading player...
This week on Good Things with Brent Lindeque, I get to sit down with Wilson Tauro, the Country Manager for Air France KLM, to talk about something really special.

Wilson isn’t just passionate about flying people across the world, he’s passionate about South Africa itself. In our conversation, he shares his love for this country, his belief in the power of tourism and how travel can be more than just ticking destinations off a list. For him, it’s about connection, community, and leaving something meaningful behind.

That’s why this October, I’ll be joining Wilson, along with a group of incredible South Africans, to help build a school in rural South Africa. It’s a project that proves travel can change more than just the traveller; it can change lives.

This episode is a reminder that tourism can be a force for good, that when we come together with purpose, we can create something bigger than ourselves.
