Hello and welcome to all of my friends, family, supporters, the curious and the skeptical (though I hope we win you over)! This is the start of a project that I didn't even know I had been preparing for, for years. I have wanted to take a trip around the world for years, but hadn't yet. Both for monetary reasons, but also because I wanted it to be more meaningful than just galavanting around the world, snapping selfies while the rest of the world passes by around me.
When my sister and I were talking one day, after watching Departures for about the fifth time all the way through, I casually commented that I can't recall seeing any women-led travel shows in the past...I don't know how many years. And I watch A LOT of them on Netflix and Hulu. Not even a female narrator in sight. I remember watching a lot of Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel when I was younger, but not much since. During the discussion I threw out the idea of doing that myself, using the lineup of countries I already had, but tweaked a bit to fit a new agenda- a focus on women in the traveling scene and in other countries. Explore and break the misconceptions that people hold about places around the world!
And so here we are. Welcome to this new, scary, exciting, amazing, and ambitious journey myself, one cinematographer, and a slew of female travel mates from all walks of life will be taking. We can't wait to have you join us for the ride
