The reason people should travel....

I think I wish that were me in the video!

What amazing group of diverse and breathtaking places he has seen! Those around him were obviously happier because of his visit that day.

Dang! Now I have to add a bunch of new places on my "to travel to" list. Great video.

Absolutely great. Don't know how you found it, but thanks for posting it.

I enjoyed watching this video.

I've sent this video to almost everyone I know -- love it. Wish I was in all those places.

Here's his 2006 one:

Thanks for posting - I needed a good smile today.

Now that's what you call a traveller!!! What a joyous feel good 4 minutes! It made me smile.

What a joyous expression of the fun of traveling to new places!

Wow. Loved this!

So now here's a good question. is it even real?

(kidding, it appears it is, but the last 2 videos on that page about the hoax and then the fake hoax are pretty great)

Thanks for sharing!

Yep it's real. Stride gum paid for the trips in the video that the op posted. Matt paid for the trips in the two I posted above.

Gives me the warm fuzzies:) Love it!!

It reminds me of the Starbucks Love Project: "All You Need is Love" sung by people around the world.

Absolutely warm fuzzies...I had to watch it a second time a few days later...I couldn't believe it was real! Thanks for sharing! Dan

Thanks, Frank, for sharing this. I had a young colleague die in diving accident this past week and this video put a bit of a smile back on my face.

I had seen this before, but it was great to see it again. Thanks for sharing Frank.

Hey, he was in Austin!!
He was in Buenos Aires Argentina too and I'm going there next month!!! So excited!

AWESOME! Wish I'd run into him on one of my trips.

Thanks for posting this Frank!

I've seen the older ones, but this was fun. Three thoughts:

1)I. want. his. job.

2) I'm bummed that I missed him in Atlanta. I so would have been there in the fountains with my kids dancing badly.

3) (sorry, I'm gone planning my next trip after watching that video.)

That put a big smile on my face. Thanks, Frank
