Departures – TV show Review

This was amazing from beginning to end and does not get enough mention anywhere. This TV show showed the expedition and adventures of three friends as they traveled to multiple places around the world, even Antarctica discovering their love for cultures, nature, and society. They learned some of the most valuable lessons, they met some of the most amazing people, they experienced some of the most amazing places, that I could only dream about visiting. These guys are an inspiration to the multiple travelers worldwide trying to discover different places that the world has to offer.

I would congratulate these guys for documented the best travel series I have ever watched and highly recommend this show to anyone. This is a must see TV series and I would rate it 11 out of 10.

Mile…Mile & a Half – Documentary Review

This hiking nature and travel documentary shows a group of friends hiking the 219 mile John Muir Trail stretching Yosemite to Mount Whitney. This immensely difficult and challenging trail is incredibly beautiful and very picturesque. The movie chronicled their daily lives during this great feat that hundreds of people attempt each year.

The movie was well directed and well filmed, and the fact that the main purpose of the trip was for the natural and creative side of each of the members made this movie that much more interesting to me. I loved this movie from beginning to end. They met strangers on the way and many people joined them during their trip to continue the hike together. It really was a well documented expedition for success.

Overall, I would recommend this movie especially for the nature and travel enthusiasts and any lovers of documentaries. I would rate this movie an 8.5 out of 10.

Street Food Around The World – TV Show Review

I have quite a lot to say about this TV show because when looking at the comments on Netflix you either found people who loved it or people who hated it. The reason people hate it was mostly because of the presenter, also people who loved it liked the presenter and the way the show was done.

First off this TV show isn’t like most of the travel and food shows you get on Travel Channel or the Food Network. The presenter is a quirky and corny guy, you have been warned. One episode when they went to Paris, he went the whole day wearing a barret (a French hat), which can be seen as a very touristy thing to do. He seems like just an average guy who loves to blog about his love of street food. People say on Netflix that he was rude to the locals, and that he didn’t comment very much on the taste of the food. Personally, I think he wasn’t really rude and you didn’t need as much commenting with this kind of TV show.

I really liked this TV show. It was well filmed, there was great food and the presenter did a pretty good job. He sometimes did get annoying, but it was all in the fun of the show. I would give this show a 9 out of 10, and would recommend it for any food and/or travel enthusiast.
