New "travel" video out now! A lot has been said about my home town of Portland since I've been traveling. And because I'm home for a short period of time, I felt like I had to clear up some blatant misconceptions about my city. So, come join me as I show off Portland, how it's absolutely 100% not burning down or a war zone, and why it's actually one of the most livable cities in the country... a place that I'm proud to call home. 💚 Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/hwK1ClqHCRw

New video out now! Northern Australia is, quite possibly, one of the weirdest places on the planet. It's not dry, but it's also not entirely livable either. There are cities, but none of them are huge. It's been home to one of the longest running civilizations on earth, but you've probably never heard of them. So here are 15 incredible facts about Australia's great weird northern region. Watch the full video: https://youtu.be/-wg-iQl5Ai0

New video out now! Mainland Italy and its largest island of Sicily are just 3 kilometers apart from each other. Despite this, there's no bridge connecting the two. Such an infrastructure project would be a no-brainer for most countries and yet... Italy can't seem to get it done. Want to know why? Watch the full video right here: https://youtu.be/8I1BUm547WM

New travel video out now! This week I'm making the trip from Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia all the way to Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. Given that they're neighbors, you might think that this is a relatively easy flight. But it's not! So, I'm hitting the road instead, crossing the Georgian-Armenia land border and then exploring some of Armenia's most beautiful and ancient sights.

New video out now! Russia is a fascinating (though problematic) country. Despite its illegal invasion of Ukraine, it has a geography that is unlike anywhere else in the world. And its this exact geography that can help us understand why Russia continually makes the antagonistic decisions towards Europe and their neighbors. So here are 15 shocking facts about the world's largest country. Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/S_k-mxF6xhQ

New video out now! The Midwest of the United States is one of the most densely populated regions of the country. But there is a part of it, a very large part, that has no major cities, a vast rural population, and many, many farms. This is America's Empty Midwest and it has a fascinating story for why it did not develop in the same way as its neighbors. Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/x3U1kgcHV94

New video out now! What's the first thing that pops into your head when you think of the state of Iowa? Probably corn, right? Endless fields of corns. But Iowa is so much more interesting than its reputation suggests. For example, did you know that Iowa actually isn't all that flat especially in the Driftless Area? Or that the transcontinental railroad started in Council Bluffs, Iowa? Watch the full video to learn all about why Iowa isn't nearly as boring as you think: https://youtu.be/JfVH5sP2O8I

New video out now! Uruguay is often considered to be one of the most successful South American countries. But did, you know that, despite being wedged in between the two massive countries of Brazil and Argentina, only 3.4 million people call Uruguay home? So if it's so successful, then why don't more people live there? Watch the full video to find out: https://youtu.be/UYJfI-SGvGw

New travel video out now! Did you know that tucked just south of Russia is one of the Europe's oldest and most beautiful countries? But while Georgia has a culture that dates back thousands of years (including be the place where wine was invented), it's constantly living under the shadow of its northern neighbor giving the entire country a bit of an uneasy feeling. So what's Georgia like today and why is it so incredible? Watch the full video to find out! https://youtu.be/9Ro-3OAUGL4

New video out now! Have you ever heard of Guangzhou? How about Chengdu? Chongqing? Xi'an? Hangzhou? Believe it or not these are all cities LARGER than Paris, New York City, or Los Angeles. But their global reputation is much smaller than their actual size. So what are China's secret mega cities and why haven't we heard more about them?

New travel video out now! Europe is often considered to be one of the BEST places to take the train. And while that is true in many scenarios, if you want to cross the continent, it gets much more challenging. This week, I attempted to recreate the famous Orient Express using nothing but normal European night trains... and it is HARD! Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/JjyAR2tvqwU
