With her family’s high hopes hinging on her success, she seeks to find a balance between her academic demands and outside interests. Megan, a recent graduate with a degree in elementary education, has wanted to be a teacher since she was a child, but is struggling to hold onto her dream in the face of a difficult job market. Zachariah, an animated geology major at Ohio State University, seeks to channel his many interests into one concrete path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joined by a common desire to explore the worlds of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), the Roadtrippers set out on an eye-opening experience that expose them to the vast breadth of exciting career possibilities in STEM — including jobs such as Jelly Belly food scientist, video game level designer and outdoor science school director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several of the leaders interviewed include two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Salopek\" target=\"_blank\">Paul Salopek\u003c/a>; \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jad_Abumrad\" target=\"_blank\">Jad Abumrad\u003c/a>, host and creator of the public radio show \u003cstrong>Radio Lab\u003c/strong>; \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariette_DiChristina\" target=\"_blank\">Mariette DiChristina\u003c/a>, editor-in-chief of \u003cstrong>Scientific American\u003c/strong>; Delfina Eberly, director of data operations at Facebook; and Dr. Graeme Rae, chief scientist, Surfline.com.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The philosophy that drives \u003cstrong>Roadtrip Nation\u003c/strong> is the search for individuals who have resisted pressures to conform and who have become successful by following their own paths.

Roadtripper Jackie has just earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry at the University of Texas, and left her home in Mexico to do so. With her family’s high hopes hinging on her success, she seeks to find a balance between her academic demands and outside interests. Recent-grad Megan has always wanted to become a teacher, but feels she must break out of her insulated surroundings to determine whether that dream is still right for her. Zachariah, an animated student at Ohio State, seeks to channel his many interests into one concrete path. After meeting each other (and their 36-foot home-on-wheels), the crew hits the beach to interview Dr. Graeme Rae, the Chief Scientist for Surfline.com, who discusses leaving the world of academia to help surfers score waves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1002: Embracing Change\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAfter settling into life on the Road (which includes dumping septic tanks and sleeping 3 feet away from each other), the team heads towards Hollywood. There, they meet Dr. Valerie Weiss, a film director who went through the trouble of getting a Ph.D in Biophysics so she could determine whether she really wanted to pursue science or filmmaking. Valerie’s decision to set aside her Ph.D shows the Roadtrippers that it’s never too late to alter your course. Later, the team heads to Facebook headquarters to meet with Delfina Eberly, the Director of Data Operations, who, as a confident Hispanic woman overseeing a mostly-male staff, inspires Jackie. Later, the team takes a zip-line adventure through Redwoods guided by Suzy Clark, the Director of the Mount Hermon Outdoor Science School. Suzy recounts the many jobs she’s had, and allays the team’s quarter-life anxiety by telling them that they don’t need to know exactly where they’re going in life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong> #1003: The Power of Serendipity\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003c/strong>Outside of San Francisco, the team arrives at the Jelly Belly factory to meet with Elise Benstein, a food scientist who develops new Jelly Belly flavors. Elise encourages the Roadtrippers to be open to unplanned opportunity; after all, she never would have thought her job would consist of making Root Beer-flavored candy, but she loves it. From California, the crew winds east to Arizona, where they meet with Deon Clark, a nuclear engineer. Deon joined the navy as a teenager to escape the drugs and violence of his neighborhood, and stresses the importance of rejecting peer pressure. Moving onto New Mexico, the team meets two-time Pulitzer-Prize-winning journalist Paul Salopek, whose non-linear life experiences teach the Roadtrippers to embrace serendipity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1004: Don’t Feel Trapped\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIn Texas, the Roadtrippers head to the Texas Instruments headquarters to meet Process Integration Engineer Byron Williams. Byron shares his struggle with self-doubt that almost stopped him from pursuing a career in science, and encourages the Roadtrippers to re-frame challenge as a motivator. Later, the crew heads to the ATT Foundry to speak with Senior Marketing Manager Tracy Parrish. Tracy discusses her switch from engineering to teaching, and helps Megan overcome her anxiety about teaching STEM subjects. The team ends the week at the National Space Biomedical Research Facility in Houston. There, Deputy Chief Scientist Dorit Donoviel discusses the courage it took to leave a comfortable job and try a new field. She encourages the team to never be afraid of venturing in new directions if they start to feel stagnant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1005: No More ‘What if’s\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>Leaving Houston, the team takes a brief hiatus from interviews with a 2-day drive to Chicago that allows them to reflect on the experience thus far. Once in the Windy City, they find themselves speaking with Zach Kaplan, the CEO and Co-founder of Inventables, a company that connects product developers with novel materials. Zach recounts the many rejections he’s been dealt over the years, emphasizing perseverance in the face of challenge. Next, the team heads to Chicagoland Skydive to meet with skydiving instructor Ward Hessig. Once a policeman on track to becoming a lawyer, Ward discusses the fortuitous turn of events that led to his shift in paths. After their chat, the Roadtrippers nervously prepare for a skydive, but are ultimately able to let go of trepidation by following Ward’s advice to ‘push through fear and embrace the reward.’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1006: Uncertainty is Opportunity\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>As they enter the 5th week of their 7-week Roadtrip, the team reflects on how comfortable they’ve become with the unpredictable eccentricities of the Road. Megan, who is naturally wired to adhere to routine, is learning to embrace uncertainly, and this helps her cope with an influx of job rejections. In New York, the team’s interview with Radiolab radio host Jad Abumrad serves to reinforce Megan’s newfound acceptance of the unknown. Jad describes his unsuccessful attempts at other careers, noting that although he never thought he would get into radio, he has found it to be a surprisingly satisfying assimilation of his interests. His ability to adapt to changing circumstance teaches the Roadtrippers although they might not end up where they planned in life, their ultimate trajectory might be even better than what they expected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1007: Be Well-Rounded\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>In New York City, the team meets with Mariette DiChristina, Editor-in-Chief of Scientific American, who was able to combine her interests in writing, science, and art into a meaningful career. Mariette urges the Roadtrippers to incorporate their passions into their work—even if they face criticism from others. Moving north, the Roadtrippers arrange a visit with Vicki Smith, a game designer at Vicarious Visions. Vicki shares her circuitous route to game design, explaining that she initially abandoned her own dreams in favor of following her parents’ expectations. In offering advice to the Roadtrippers, she stresses the importance of being well-rounded, and educating oneself in a wide range of disciplines—even if they don’t particularly interest you. That way, you have an arsenal of knowledge to inform the work you do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1008: It Doesn’t End Here\u003c/strong>\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>After traveling over 5,000 miles in 45 days, the Roadtrippers reach Massachusetts for the final week of their journey. There, they meet with Jeremy England, an MIT biophysicist, and Juan Enriquez, the CEO of Biotechnonomy LLC. Change is the topic of discussion with Juan, who tells the Roadtrippers to ‘scare the hell’ out of themselves sometimes because stagnancy is the enemy of personal growth. Moving onto the last interview of the trip, the Roadtrippers meet with Lydia Villa-Komaroff, an internationally-acclaimed molecular biologist and Chief Scientific Officer at CytonomeST. Lydia discusses the challenges of being a Mexican-American woman in a male-dominated field, and credits her passion for helping her to overcome obstacles. Afterwards, the team heads to the airport where they reflect on their personal growth and future paths before sharing one last group hug.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About Roadtrip Nation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the summer of 2001, three friends decided to take a Roadtrip to seek their place in the world. The idea behind the Roadtrip was simple: If you don’t know what to do with your life, talk to people who are doing what they love, then ask them how they got there. The trio hit the road in a mechanically unsound Green RV, and three months and 17,000 miles later had interviewed 85 eclectic individuals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, Roadtrip Nation has evolved into a Movement to help individuals define their own Roads in life: including nine seasons on public television, three books, an online community, and a student network on more than 350 college campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, the Movement expanded into education with the creation of RoadtripNation.org and the development of The Roadtrip Nation Experience—a hands-on, engaging curriculum that guides students through an explorative process to learn about pathways relevant to their own individuality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roadtrip Nation is dedicated to inspiring people everywhere to create lives based on doing what they love.

Roadtripper Jackie has just earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry at the University of Texas, and left her home in Mexico to do so. With her family’s high hopes hinging on her success, she seeks to find a balance between her academic demands and outside interests. Recent-grad Megan has always wanted to become a teacher, but feels she must break out of her insulated surroundings to determine whether that dream is still right for her. Zachariah, an animated student at Ohio State, seeks to channel his many interests into one concrete path. After meeting each other (and their 36-foot home-on-wheels), the crew hits the beach to interview Dr. Graeme Rae, the Chief Scientist for Surfline.com, who discusses leaving the world of academia to help surfers score waves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1002: Embracing Change\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAfter settling into life on the Road (which includes dumping septic tanks and sleeping 3 feet away from each other), the team heads towards Hollywood. There, they meet Dr. Valerie Weiss, a film director who went through the trouble of getting a Ph.D in Biophysics so she could determine whether she really wanted to pursue science or filmmaking. Valerie’s decision to set aside her Ph.D shows the Roadtrippers that it’s never too late to alter your course. Later, the team heads to Facebook headquarters to meet with Delfina Eberly, the Director of Data Operations, who, as a confident Hispanic woman overseeing a mostly-male staff, inspires Jackie. Later, the team takes a zip-line adventure through Redwoods guided by Suzy Clark, the Director of the Mount Hermon Outdoor Science School. Suzy recounts the many jobs she’s had, and allays the team’s quarter-life anxiety by telling them that they don’t need to know exactly where they’re going in life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong> #1003: The Power of Serendipity\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003c/strong>Outside of San Francisco, the team arrives at the Jelly Belly factory to meet with Elise Benstein, a food scientist who develops new Jelly Belly flavors. Elise encourages the Roadtrippers to be open to unplanned opportunity; after all, she never would have thought her job would consist of making Root Beer-flavored candy, but she loves it. From California, the crew winds east to Arizona, where they meet with Deon Clark, a nuclear engineer. Deon joined the navy as a teenager to escape the drugs and violence of his neighborhood, and stresses the importance of rejecting peer pressure. Moving onto New Mexico, the team meets two-time Pulitzer-Prize-winning journalist Paul Salopek, whose non-linear life experiences teach the Roadtrippers to embrace serendipity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1004: Don’t Feel Trapped\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIn Texas, the Roadtrippers head to the Texas Instruments headquarters to meet Process Integration Engineer Byron Williams. Byron shares his struggle with self-doubt that almost stopped him from pursuing a career in science, and encourages the Roadtrippers to re-frame challenge as a motivator. Later, the crew heads to the ATT Foundry to speak with Senior Marketing Manager Tracy Parrish. Tracy discusses her switch from engineering to teaching, and helps Megan overcome her anxiety about teaching STEM subjects. The team ends the week at the National Space Biomedical Research Facility in Houston. There, Deputy Chief Scientist Dorit Donoviel discusses the courage it took to leave a comfortable job and try a new field. She encourages the team to never be afraid of venturing in new directions if they start to feel stagnant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1005: No More ‘What if’s\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>Leaving Houston, the team takes a brief hiatus from interviews with a 2-day drive to Chicago that allows them to reflect on the experience thus far. Once in the Windy City, they find themselves speaking with Zach Kaplan, the CEO and Co-founder of Inventables, a company that connects product developers with novel materials. Zach recounts the many rejections he’s been dealt over the years, emphasizing perseverance in the face of challenge. Next, the team heads to Chicagoland Skydive to meet with skydiving instructor Ward Hessig. Once a policeman on track to becoming a lawyer, Ward discusses the fortuitous turn of events that led to his shift in paths. After their chat, the Roadtrippers nervously prepare for a skydive, but are ultimately able to let go of trepidation by following Ward’s advice to ‘push through fear and embrace the reward.’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1006: Uncertainty is Opportunity\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>As they enter the 5th week of their 7-week Roadtrip, the team reflects on how comfortable they’ve become with the unpredictable eccentricities of the Road. Megan, who is naturally wired to adhere to routine, is learning to embrace uncertainly, and this helps her cope with an influx of job rejections. In New York, the team’s interview with Radiolab radio host Jad Abumrad serves to reinforce Megan’s newfound acceptance of the unknown. Jad describes his unsuccessful attempts at other careers, noting that although he never thought he would get into radio, he has found it to be a surprisingly satisfying assimilation of his interests. His ability to adapt to changing circumstance teaches the Roadtrippers although they might not end up where they planned in life, their ultimate trajectory might be even better than what they expected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1007: Be Well-Rounded\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>In New York City, the team meets with Mariette DiChristina, Editor-in-Chief of Scientific American, who was able to combine her interests in writing, science, and art into a meaningful career. Mariette urges the Roadtrippers to incorporate their passions into their work—even if they face criticism from others. Moving north, the Roadtrippers arrange a visit with Vicki Smith, a game designer at Vicarious Visions. Vicki shares her circuitous route to game design, explaining that she initially abandoned her own dreams in favor of following her parents’ expectations. In offering advice to the Roadtrippers, she stresses the importance of being well-rounded, and educating oneself in a wide range of disciplines—even if they don’t particularly interest you. That way, you have an arsenal of knowledge to inform the work you do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#1008: It Doesn’t End Here\u003c/strong>\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>After traveling over 5,000 miles in 45 days, the Roadtrippers reach Massachusetts for the final week of their journey. There, they meet with Jeremy England, an MIT biophysicist, and Juan Enriquez, the CEO of Biotechnonomy LLC. Change is the topic of discussion with Juan, who tells the Roadtrippers to ‘scare the hell’ out of themselves sometimes because stagnancy is the enemy of personal growth. Moving onto the last interview of the trip, the Roadtrippers meet with Lydia Villa-Komaroff, an internationally-acclaimed molecular biologist and Chief Scientific Officer at CytonomeST. Lydia discusses the challenges of being a Mexican-American woman in a male-dominated field, and credits her passion for helping her to overcome obstacles. Afterwards, the team heads to the airport where they reflect on their personal growth and future paths before sharing one last group hug.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About Roadtrip Nation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the summer of 2001, three friends decided to take a Roadtrip to seek their place in the world. The idea behind the Roadtrip was simple: If you don’t know what to do with your life, talk to people who are doing what they love, then ask them how they got there. The trio hit the road in a mechanically unsound Green RV, and three months and 17,000 miles later had interviewed 85 eclectic individuals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, Roadtrip Nation has evolved into a Movement to help individuals define their own Roads in life: including nine seasons on public television, three books, an online community, and a student network on more than 350 college campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, the Movement expanded into education with the creation of RoadtripNation.org and the development of The Roadtrip Nation Experience—a hands-on, engaging curriculum that guides students through an explorative process to learn about pathways relevant to their own individuality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roadtrip Nation is dedicated to inspiring people everywhere to create lives based on doing what they love.

It tells the story of the creation of an industry that went on to become the single greatest engine of innovation and economic growth in the 20th century. Entertaining and poignant, it is told by the visionary risk-takers who dared to make it happen: Tom Perkins, Don Valentine, Arthur Rock, Dick Kramlich and others. The film also includes some of our finest entrepreneurs sharing how they worked with these venture capitalists to start and grow world-class companies like Intel, Apple, Cisco, Atari, Genentech, Tandem and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beginning in the late 1950's, this small group of high rollers fostered a one-of-a-kind business culture that encouraged extraordinary risk and made possible unprecedented rewards. They laid the groundwork for America's start-up economy, providing not just the capital but the guidance to allow seedling companies to reach their full potential. This small group of individuals would go on to finance nearly every major technology advancement over the past 50 years. They laid the groundwork for our startup economy. Our lives would be dramatically different without the contributions that these venture capitalists made to the creation of PCs, the Internet and biotechnology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recent scandals in big business are unpardonable. But for every Bernie Madoff, Enron or Lehman Brothers, there are hundreds of companies getting it right and having a blast doing it. \u003cstrong>Something Ventured\u003c/strong> offers a peek into a lighter, but equally dramatic, side of business—at a time when encouraging innovation is key to preserving our competitive edge. The lives and contributions of these characters are a source of inspiration—not just for entrepreneurs and investors, but for anyone who has a dream and the passion to pursue it no matter the odds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Quotes from Interviewees in the Documentary\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know how to write a business plan.

I’m not interested in entrepreneurs who think there’s a dress code.

BIG mistake.” —\u003cstrong>Nolan Bushnell\u003c/strong>, Founder of Atari\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At Cisco, being a woman and a technical woman, I think I was just very, very frightening.

It tells the story of the creation of an industry that went on to become the single greatest engine of innovation and economic growth in the 20th century. Entertaining and poignant, it is told by the visionary risk-takers who dared to make it happen: Tom Perkins, Don Valentine, Arthur Rock, Dick Kramlich and others. The film also includes some of our finest entrepreneurs sharing how they worked with these venture capitalists to start and grow world-class companies like Intel, Apple, Cisco, Atari, Genentech, Tandem and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beginning in the late 1950's, this small group of high rollers fostered a one-of-a-kind business culture that encouraged extraordinary risk and made possible unprecedented rewards. They laid the groundwork for America's start-up economy, providing not just the capital but the guidance to allow seedling companies to reach their full potential. This small group of individuals would go on to finance nearly every major technology advancement over the past 50 years. They laid the groundwork for our startup economy. Our lives would be dramatically different without the contributions that these venture capitalists made to the creation of PCs, the Internet and biotechnology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recent scandals in big business are unpardonable. But for every Bernie Madoff, Enron or Lehman Brothers, there are hundreds of companies getting it right and having a blast doing it. \u003cstrong>Something Ventured\u003c/strong> offers a peek into a lighter, but equally dramatic, side of business—at a time when encouraging innovation is key to preserving our competitive edge. The lives and contributions of these characters are a source of inspiration—not just for entrepreneurs and investors, but for anyone who has a dream and the passion to pursue it no matter the odds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Quotes from Interviewees in the Documentary\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know how to write a business plan.

Located more than two thousand miles from the coast of Chile, Rapa Nui (the island’s native name) offers a world of mysteries that have remained unanswered for centuries. Questions abound surrounding the origins of the Rapa Nui culture, their enormous carved stone \u003cem>moai\u003c/em> and the cause of the Rapa Nui people’s ecological and natural disasters. Although one question invariably leads to another, Joseph attempts to explain what often eludes explanation while he spotlights the amazing journey of the Rapa Nui people, from the shores of Polynesia more than 1,500 years ago through their glory days and times of turmoil to the vibrant culture that flourishes today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#602 - Hong Kong – Asia’s World City\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nLong known as a commercial center, Hong Kong has become much more than a shopper’s paradise. It is a multi-cultural, multi-faceted city with a world of attractions. On his Hong Kong adventure, Joseph takes in the luxury hotels, designer shops and Michelin-star restaurants of Asia’s World City, but also explores its local neighborhoods, colorful markets, places of natural beauty and meets the people who retain their connections to their customs and traditions. He discovers that while Hong Kong is a vibrant international town, it is the people and their cultural heritage that keep him coming back for more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#603 - Riding the Range in Southern Alberta, Canada\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph hits the trail to Southern Alberta, Canada and follows the path of the province’s settlement from the early days of the buffalo and the Blackfoot people to present-day ranchers and cowboys. His travels take him to Blackfoot Crossing Historical Park, Writing-On-Stone Provincial Park and Head-Smashed-In-Buffalo Jump, sacred and historic native sites where he celebrates the rich heritage of the Blackfoot First Nations people through their history, dances, chants and songs. At the Lucasia Ranch, he partakes of the area’s cowboy culture when he saddles up and rides into the Alberta foothills in search of a few strays before sitting down with the Lucas family for a rousing ranch house dinner. His journey of history, culture and natural beauty ends aboard the M.V. International on a cruise across the Canada–U.S. border on Lake Waterton, part of the Waterton–Glacier International Peace Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#604 - Southern Ethiopia – Tribal Lands and Primeval People\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph’s adventure begins along the shores of Lake Abaya and Chamo, two of the lakes of the 2,400 mile Rift Valley where modern man is said to have originated. After becoming acquainted with the lakes’ fishermen, birds, crocodiles and hippos, he soldiers on across dry, wide stretches of savannah and forests that hug the river beds into the Lower Omo Valley. During his stay in the valley, he has close encounters with the Konso, Hamer and Mursi people, mostly nomadic tribal people who still live untouched by modern inventions and amenities. In the towns, markets and tribal camps, he meets the people and shares in their ancient customs and ceremonies. Although not without its challenges, this \u003cem>Joseph Rosendo’s Travelscope\u003c/em> adventure offers an unforgettable look at prehistoric cultures in transition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#605 - Northern Ethiopia – Ancient History and Spiritual Present\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph travels to Northern Ethiopia to uncover its ancient history and discover its spiritual present thorough cultural adventures, myths and legends. His path takes him from the monasteries of Lake Tana, the largest lake in Ethiopia, to the castles of King Fasiladas in Gondar, to the stelaes of Axum and the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela. There are World Heritage sites and surprises galore as Joseph traces the lineage of Ethiopia’s kings back to the days of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. In the ancient town of Axum, he stands at the threshold of the chapel where Ethiopians believe the Ark of Covenant is housed. In Lalibela, he prays with a pilgrim before visiting a local school that is being supported by children in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#606 - Land without Limits – The Cariboo–Chilcotin–Coast Region of British Columbia, Canada\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIt may seem hard to say, but this little known region of British Columbia, Canada offers travelers a world of adventures. “Land Without Limits” is the area’s slogan, and, in this case, it’s right on target. From the ocean to the mountains, Joseph crosses the region having experiences that range from smoking salmon with the First Nations \u003cem>Nuxalk\u003c/em> people, fishing for prawns with local fisherman, hiking through the wilderness to Canada’s third highest waterfall and stepping back in time at the roaring gold rush town of Barkerville. Throughout the journey, Joseph comes face-to-face with the region’s expansive, remote beauty and wildlife that includes hundreds of species of birds, Grizzly and Black Bears, as well as a mother moose and her calf. It’s an adventure without limits that is close to home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#607 - Sechseläuten \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>– Switzerland’s Spring Festival\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nWe find out what \u003cem>Sechseläuten\u003c/em> really means when we join Joseph on his springtime visit to Zurich, Switzerland. Considered a dry, formal, business town, Zurich casts off the stereotypes and its residents slough off their inhibitions when they welcome spring in celebration with the town’s historic medieval trade unions. On parade day, Joseph dons a baker’s cap and joins the Bakers Guild for a romp through the streets of Zurich to the square where the Bogg (snowman), in observation of the end of winter, loses his head in a burst of firecrackers. Once he is engulfed in flames, winter is banished and the citizens of Zurich use the glowing embers of his pyre to roast sausages while they quaff local wine and party well into the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#608 - Dreamin’ California’s Coast – Malibu to Big Sur\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph and Julie are California Dreamin’ as they celebrate their anniversary along the state’s romantic coast. They join up with a California Luxury Tour that begins in Southern California in their hometown of Topanga and travels to the nearby Getty Villa where they partake of the glory that was Greece and Rome. From there, they follow the winding coast to Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo County and then northward to the edge of the Big Sur. Highlights of their adventure include wine tasting in the sampling rooms of some of Malibu’s little-known but star-studded wineries, visiting Santa Barbara’s famous mission, horseback riding on the Pismo dunes, soaking their bones at Sycamore Hot Springs and strolling the peddle-strewn beaches of Cambria. California Dreamin’ takes on new meaning when they imagine life among splendor that is Hearst Castle in San Simeon, where the rich and famous once played at being common folk. The sun dramatically sets on their adventure at the world-famous Point Dume State Beach in Malibu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#609 - San Miguel de Allende, Celebrating in the Heart of Mexico\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph makes his way to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico for the annual Fiesta de San Miguel, a celebration in honor of its patron saint. While taking part in miles of processions, enjoying the world’s greatest fireworks display and dancing the night away accompanied by the music of dozens of local bands, he takes time to acquaint himself with the history and beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage colonial city, which is famous for its artistic soul. During his stay, he models for the artists at the famous Instituto Allende, soaks in the mystical Mayan Baths, steams with a shaman in a sweat lodge, sails across the city in a hot air balloon and parties with the best of them in El Jardin, San Miguel de Allende’s main plaza. To top off his stay, he meets Chef Felipe of the Casa de Sierra Nevada, one of the town’s top chefs, in the main market to pick up the fixings for his one-on-one cooking class featuring local cuisine.

To prove his point, he begins his wandering in Toronto, Canada’s largest and most cosmopolitan city. He finds that besides being a cultural Mecca for art, theater, film, music and fine dining, as well as one of the greenest cities in North America, it is one of the world’s most multicultural cities. Italian, Irish, Indian, Greek, Chinese, Vietnamese -- the ethnic diversity matches the seemingly never-ending list of world-class attractions and activities. From gentle bicycling along Lake Ontario’s shore to kayaking along the Toronto Islands or hanging 116 stories above the ground from the edge of the CN Tower, Joseph finds out there’s never a dull moment in this young, vibrant and ever-evolving town. And, if that isn’t enough, a day excursion to the Niagara Peninsula wine region and the quaint town of Niagara-On-The-Lake keeps Joseph sippin’, nibblin’, pickin’ and hoppin’ through the more than 60 wineries that have sprouted up in one of Canada’s most scenic regions, at one time described by Winston Churchill as, “the prettiest Sunday drive in North America.” During this episode, Joseph and his viewers are truly on a movable feast for all the senses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#611 - Cruising the Mediterranean\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph climbs aboard the Regent Seven Seas Mariner for a Mediterranean cruise adventure. Onboard, he joins other public television and NPR journalists on a PTV at Sea cruise experience -- meeting, greeting and speaking with his public television viewers. Onshore, he sets out on a journey of discovery and captures the enduring beauty that is Venice, the history of Croatia, the multi-culturalism of Malta and the heart and soul of Sicily and Tuscany. Along the way, he visits medieval towns, bustling markets, regional restaurants and local wineries where he expects – and finds – the unexpected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#612 - Christmas in Switzerland\u003c/strong>\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nJoseph Rosendo’s Travelscope \u003c/em>heads to Lausanne, Montreux and Basel, Switzerland to bask in the glow of a Swiss-style Christmas at some of the country’s best Christmas markets. Joseph’s adventures include a visit to a Christmas ornament artist, samplings of Swiss culinary specialties, a journey to old St. Nick’s village and a close encounter with Father Christmas himself and his trusty companion the Schmutzli, who’s been checking his list to find out who’s been naughty or nice. A full slate of holiday fun is guaranteed for all!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp align=\"left\">\u003cstrong>#613 - Passage through Chile’s Tierra del Fuego around Cape Horn \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe spirit of Magellan, the worldwide traveler, is alive and well as Joseph circumnavigates the tip of South America on an expedition passenger ship. He sails through \u003cem>Tierra del Fuego\u003c/em> and around Cape Horn on Joseph’s latest Chilean adventure. As the ship follows Darwin’s watery trail, he travels into the Beagle Channel and through “Glaciers Avenue,” where the majestic Spain, Romanche, Germany, Italy, France and Holland glaciers seem close enough to touch. Along the way, he encounters elephant seals, Magellanic penguins and sea birds aplenty. A highlight of the show is a stop on \u003cem>Isla Del Horno\u003c/em> – Horn Island – where Joseph stands at the end of the Americas and visits the memorial to the ancient mariners who lost their lives attempting to make the Cape Horn passage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">-------------------------------------------------------------------\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About KQED\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED (\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org\" target=\"_blank\">kqed.org\u003c/a>) has served Northern California for more than 50 years and is affiliated with NPR and PBS.

Located more than two thousand miles from the coast of Chile, Rapa Nui (the island’s native name) offers a world of mysteries that have remained unanswered for centuries. Questions abound surrounding the origins of the Rapa Nui culture, their enormous carved stone \u003cem>moai\u003c/em> and the cause of the Rapa Nui people’s ecological and natural disasters. Although one question invariably leads to another, Joseph attempts to explain what often eludes explanation while he spotlights the amazing journey of the Rapa Nui people, from the shores of Polynesia more than 1,500 years ago through their glory days and times of turmoil to the vibrant culture that flourishes today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#602 - Hong Kong – Asia’s World City\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nLong known as a commercial center, Hong Kong has become much more than a shopper’s paradise. It is a multi-cultural, multi-faceted city with a world of attractions. On his Hong Kong adventure, Joseph takes in the luxury hotels, designer shops and Michelin-star restaurants of Asia’s World City, but also explores its local neighborhoods, colorful markets, places of natural beauty and meets the people who retain their connections to their customs and traditions. He discovers that while Hong Kong is a vibrant international town, it is the people and their cultural heritage that keep him coming back for more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#603 - Riding the Range in Southern Alberta, Canada\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph hits the trail to Southern Alberta, Canada and follows the path of the province’s settlement from the early days of the buffalo and the Blackfoot people to present-day ranchers and cowboys. His travels take him to Blackfoot Crossing Historical Park, Writing-On-Stone Provincial Park and Head-Smashed-In-Buffalo Jump, sacred and historic native sites where he celebrates the rich heritage of the Blackfoot First Nations people through their history, dances, chants and songs. At the Lucasia Ranch, he partakes of the area’s cowboy culture when he saddles up and rides into the Alberta foothills in search of a few strays before sitting down with the Lucas family for a rousing ranch house dinner. His journey of history, culture and natural beauty ends aboard the M.V. International on a cruise across the Canada–U.S. border on Lake Waterton, part of the Waterton–Glacier International Peace Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#604 - Southern Ethiopia – Tribal Lands and Primeval People\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph’s adventure begins along the shores of Lake Abaya and Chamo, two of the lakes of the 2,400 mile Rift Valley where modern man is said to have originated. After becoming acquainted with the lakes’ fishermen, birds, crocodiles and hippos, he soldiers on across dry, wide stretches of savannah and forests that hug the river beds into the Lower Omo Valley. During his stay in the valley, he has close encounters with the Konso, Hamer and Mursi people, mostly nomadic tribal people who still live untouched by modern inventions and amenities. In the towns, markets and tribal camps, he meets the people and shares in their ancient customs and ceremonies. Although not without its challenges, this \u003cem>Joseph Rosendo’s Travelscope\u003c/em> adventure offers an unforgettable look at prehistoric cultures in transition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#605 - Northern Ethiopia – Ancient History and Spiritual Present\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph travels to Northern Ethiopia to uncover its ancient history and discover its spiritual present thorough cultural adventures, myths and legends. His path takes him from the monasteries of Lake Tana, the largest lake in Ethiopia, to the castles of King Fasiladas in Gondar, to the stelaes of Axum and the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela. There are World Heritage sites and surprises galore as Joseph traces the lineage of Ethiopia’s kings back to the days of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. In the ancient town of Axum, he stands at the threshold of the chapel where Ethiopians believe the Ark of Covenant is housed. In Lalibela, he prays with a pilgrim before visiting a local school that is being supported by children in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#606 - Land without Limits – The Cariboo–Chilcotin–Coast Region of British Columbia, Canada\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIt may seem hard to say, but this little known region of British Columbia, Canada offers travelers a world of adventures. “Land Without Limits” is the area’s slogan, and, in this case, it’s right on target. From the ocean to the mountains, Joseph crosses the region having experiences that range from smoking salmon with the First Nations \u003cem>Nuxalk\u003c/em> people, fishing for prawns with local fisherman, hiking through the wilderness to Canada’s third highest waterfall and stepping back in time at the roaring gold rush town of Barkerville. Throughout the journey, Joseph comes face-to-face with the region’s expansive, remote beauty and wildlife that includes hundreds of species of birds, Grizzly and Black Bears, as well as a mother moose and her calf. It’s an adventure without limits that is close to home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#607 - Sechseläuten \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>– Switzerland’s Spring Festival\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nWe find out what \u003cem>Sechseläuten\u003c/em> really means when we join Joseph on his springtime visit to Zurich, Switzerland. Considered a dry, formal, business town, Zurich casts off the stereotypes and its residents slough off their inhibitions when they welcome spring in celebration with the town’s historic medieval trade unions. On parade day, Joseph dons a baker’s cap and joins the Bakers Guild for a romp through the streets of Zurich to the square where the Bogg (snowman), in observation of the end of winter, loses his head in a burst of firecrackers. Once he is engulfed in flames, winter is banished and the citizens of Zurich use the glowing embers of his pyre to roast sausages while they quaff local wine and party well into the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#608 - Dreamin’ California’s Coast – Malibu to Big Sur\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph and Julie are California Dreamin’ as they celebrate their anniversary along the state’s romantic coast. They join up with a California Luxury Tour that begins in Southern California in their hometown of Topanga and travels to the nearby Getty Villa where they partake of the glory that was Greece and Rome. From there, they follow the winding coast to Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo County and then northward to the edge of the Big Sur. Highlights of their adventure include wine tasting in the sampling rooms of some of Malibu’s little-known but star-studded wineries, visiting Santa Barbara’s famous mission, horseback riding on the Pismo dunes, soaking their bones at Sycamore Hot Springs and strolling the peddle-strewn beaches of Cambria. California Dreamin’ takes on new meaning when they imagine life among splendor that is Hearst Castle in San Simeon, where the rich and famous once played at being common folk. The sun dramatically sets on their adventure at the world-famous Point Dume State Beach in Malibu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#609 - San Miguel de Allende, Celebrating in the Heart of Mexico\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph makes his way to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico for the annual Fiesta de San Miguel, a celebration in honor of its patron saint. While taking part in miles of processions, enjoying the world’s greatest fireworks display and dancing the night away accompanied by the music of dozens of local bands, he takes time to acquaint himself with the history and beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage colonial city, which is famous for its artistic soul. During his stay, he models for the artists at the famous Instituto Allende, soaks in the mystical Mayan Baths, steams with a shaman in a sweat lodge, sails across the city in a hot air balloon and parties with the best of them in El Jardin, San Miguel de Allende’s main plaza. To top off his stay, he meets Chef Felipe of the Casa de Sierra Nevada, one of the town’s top chefs, in the main market to pick up the fixings for his one-on-one cooking class featuring local cuisine. Vive Mexico!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#610 - Ontario\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>, Canada’s \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>Niagara\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> Peninsula\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> - Toronto and Beyond\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nOn his visit to the Canadian province of Ontario, Joseph sets out to show there’s more to the Niagara Peninsula region than world-famous Niagara Falls. To prove his point, he begins his wandering in Toronto, Canada’s largest and most cosmopolitan city. He finds that besides being a cultural Mecca for art, theater, film, music and fine dining, as well as one of the greenest cities in North America, it is one of the world’s most multicultural cities. Italian, Irish, Indian, Greek, Chinese, Vietnamese -- the ethnic diversity matches the seemingly never-ending list of world-class attractions and activities. From gentle bicycling along Lake Ontario’s shore to kayaking along the Toronto Islands or hanging 116 stories above the ground from the edge of the CN Tower, Joseph finds out there’s never a dull moment in this young, vibrant and ever-evolving town. And, if that isn’t enough, a day excursion to the Niagara Peninsula wine region and the quaint town of Niagara-On-The-Lake keeps Joseph sippin’, nibblin’, pickin’ and hoppin’ through the more than 60 wineries that have sprouted up in one of Canada’s most scenic regions, at one time described by Winston Churchill as, “the prettiest Sunday drive in North America.” During this episode, Joseph and his viewers are truly on a movable feast for all the senses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#611 - Cruising the Mediterranean\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nJoseph climbs aboard the Regent Seven Seas Mariner for a Mediterranean cruise adventure. Onboard, he joins other public television and NPR journalists on a PTV at Sea cruise experience -- meeting, greeting and speaking with his public television viewers. Onshore, he sets out on a journey of discovery and captures the enduring beauty that is Venice, the history of Croatia, the multi-culturalism of Malta and the heart and soul of Sicily and Tuscany. Along the way, he visits medieval towns, bustling markets, regional restaurants and local wineries where he expects – and finds – the unexpected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>#612 - Christmas in Switzerland\u003c/strong>\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nJoseph Rosendo’s Travelscope \u003c/em>heads to Lausanne, Montreux and Basel, Switzerland to bask in the glow of a Swiss-style Christmas at some of the country’s best Christmas markets. Joseph’s adventures include a visit to a Christmas ornament artist, samplings of Swiss culinary specialties, a journey to old St. Nick’s village and a close encounter with Father Christmas himself and his trusty companion the Schmutzli, who’s been checking his list to find out who’s been naughty or nice. A full slate of holiday fun is guaranteed for all!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp align=\"left\">\u003cstrong>#613 - Passage through Chile’s Tierra del Fuego around Cape Horn \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe spirit of Magellan, the worldwide traveler, is alive and well as Joseph circumnavigates the tip of South America on an expedition passenger ship. He sails through \u003cem>Tierra del Fuego\u003c/em> and around Cape Horn on Joseph’s latest Chilean adventure. As the ship follows Darwin’s watery trail, he travels into the Beagle Channel and through “Glaciers Avenue,” where the majestic Spain, Romanche, Germany, Italy, France and Holland glaciers seem close enough to touch. Along the way, he encounters elephant seals, Magellanic penguins and sea birds aplenty. A highlight of the show is a stop on \u003cem>Isla Del Horno\u003c/em> – Horn Island – where Joseph stands at the end of the Americas and visits the memorial to the ancient mariners who lost their lives attempting to make the Cape Horn passage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">-------------------------------------------------------------------\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About KQED\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED (\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org\" target=\"_blank\">kqed.org\u003c/a>) has served Northern California for more than 50 years and is affiliated with NPR and PBS.
