Travel With Your Imagination

In the XIX century, Phileas Fogg and his assistant Jean Passpartout, travelled in 80 days with two means of transport, ship and railways. Seven cities in three continents. This was "Around the world in 80 Days" as related by the brilliant Jules Verne in a captivating work that allowed us to travel with our imagination from generation to generation.

XXI Century. Three guys - Rick Mereki, Tim White y Andrew Lees-, in 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38,000 miles, a volcano in eruption, and two cameras. The result: Three amazing videos, with the titles: Move, Eat, Learn. Or Around the world in one minute.

For them, it was the trip of their lives. For us who now view these videos, it is a motivation to continue travelling, even if only in our imagination. There are things that do not change. (Use the navigation bar for a slower viewing).
