Sikisa: Saint John, Barbados

Comedian, writer and producer Sikisa has a home in many people’s dream destination: The Caribbean island of Barbados. White sands, music wafting through warm air and rum in the sun - this trip sounds so far up Shaun’s street that it’s parked on his drive. But will the cost, hurricanes and not being allowed to wear camo print (yes, really, it’s a rule) put him off?

Your Place Or Mine is the travel podcast that isn’t going anywhere - not until guests can convince Shaun Keaveny it’s worth getting off the sofa for. Each week a familiar face will try to persuade Shaun and resident geographer, historian and comedian Iszi Lawrence that jetting off to their favourite destination is worth the hassle.

Across the series listeners will be able to figuratively globe-trot to a new destination, as guests share a personal guide to their favourite place on the planet. Iszi will be on hand to check out the facts during the podcast’s metaphorical tour of its visitors’ much-loved locations.

With all the missed travel these past two years, Your Place or Mine will explore whether getting back on a plane is too much for our wallets and limited carbon budgets, or if seeing the world and experiencing global cultures is something we can’t afford to miss.

Your Place or Mine is a BBC Audio production for BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds.

Producers: Sadia Akhtar and Proinsias O’Coinn
