Connecting Cultures Through International Ice Hockey with Coach Pete Kamman (JUMP 202)

What if the thing you love most could become your passport to the world?

Jackie sits down with ice hockey coach Pete Kamman to explore how following a personal passion can lead to deeper, more meaningful travel experiences.

Pete shares how hockey has shaped his life, from growing up in the Midwest to coaching in Montana and eventually taking his work across the globe. He reflects on living and coaching in Namibia for a year, a decision that changed the course of his career and helped form the foundation of his relationship with his wife Whitney.

From coaching in Kenya and India to running practices in Malaysia and Kyrgyzstan, Pete opens up about connecting through sport across language and cultural barriers. He also shares the humbling lessons he’s learned about access, privilege, and resilience, offering a fresh perspective on travel that goes far beyond sightseeing.
