So, here’s the plan.
After more than a year of non-stop traveling, of long days working local jobs, followed by working on production, followed by working local jobs, followed yet still by an endless series of adventures the first stage of my journey is coming to a close.
Our primary goal in all of this is to enable and inspire others to have these experiences, to not only travel, but to really explore the cultures of other countries. After more than a year of telling our story we wanted to give some of our followers a chance to do just that. Jen, Kris, Serene, and Laurene will carry the story forward and share their experiences, journeys and adventures with you. In the meantime Rob and I will be back in the US and we’ll be working hard to launch some exciting new projects that should expand the scope and depth of our story. In some ways it is a difficult transition, but when it really comes down to it I am happy to trade some time in front of a laptop in the US if it allows dozens of others to tell their own Jet Set Zero stories and adventures.
We’ll be behind the scenes for a little while, but we haven’t gone anywhere.
Thank you to everyone who made this first year possible. We promise that the second year will provide some amazing new directions, locations and adventures.
And of course, we’ll be back soon.

Totally thought she was taller.
We got taken out to the 700 Yacht Club (Seoul’s only yacht club) as part of a project we are doing with the Seoul Tourism Organization. The people there were great and not only took us sailing on the river all afternoon, they cooked us a lunch as well. Its a great place to go if you live in Seoul and are looking to do some sailing (membership required).
More pictures beyond… (more…)
It was Rob’s last night in town so we headed out to our favorite hof to say goodbye to soju with some of our good friends: Yuyu, Shinhye (pictured above), Katia and of course Kevin. All in all I think we did a pretty good job of wish soju a fond farewell.
The fun continues…
We are happy to present the last in our series of timelapses in Tokyo– ironically the first we shot and produced. This shot began as an experiment to capture both the bustling frenzy of life in Tokyo, as well as our experience as solitary observers– outsiders with only enough resources to let the foot traffic of the city wash over us. What emerged were a set of three profound and visually stunning shorts that do more than any other single shots we captured during Season 2 to communicate our experiences in Japan.
