SFYNers around the globe: Carlo Sumoang (Philippines)

Welcome to a new episode of SFYNers around the globe! In this series we are going to meet different activists of our network. We are going to get to know more about who they are, what they do in their daily lives and how they are involved with the Slow Food Youth Network. We have a similar set of questions for all the SFYNers but in additions to those we will see of course where the conversation brings us.  The special guest of today is Carlo Sumoang, a SFYN activist based in Manila, in The Philippines. SFYN in The Philippines has always been a very active network in the past years. They have carried out different initiatives to preserve local food heritage and biodiversity, to reduce food waste and much more. So I am really happy today to have this conversation with Carlo who can tell us a bit more about what is currently happening and also to get to know him more. Carlo is a farmer, entrepreneur and a fan of meditation. His dream? To retire soon and live as an hermit where he can meditate all day long… Podcast host, production and editing: Valentina Gritti Podcast jingle: Leonardo Prieto Dorantes A project by the Slow Food Youth Network
