    The Blue Lotus Café, a podcasting experiment

    co-hosted by Christophe Berg & Ivor Madžar

    We started the Blue Lotus Café podcast as Chris was the director of education & founder - Ivor was instructor in plant-based cuisine & the social media manager of Blue Lotus Hua Hin.

    Both passionate about learning, we decided to share what can be useful for our students. We selected meaningful, intriguing and fun topics. We kept our conversations to 20 minutes. Listen the episode about our podcasting experience on Apple or Spotify.

    Our idea was to Explore our interests & plant-based cuisine - Share crazy ideas & practical experiments - Talking about self-development & lifestyle design. The result is 80 topics covered and still available on your favorite podcast platform: Apple - Spotify - Google podcasts
