i often have dreams of grand adventures - a life of trotting the globe, eating new foods, trying fun and scary things, and meeting new people at every corner.
rick mereki has done it. with the help of 2 other dashing young men, he scoured the globe to turn over a month of experiences abroad, into 3 films based on 3 concepts based on things we all know well. as he says, "3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage". that's what 44 days of travel gets you.
so. on that note - move, eat and learn, because the world is too large to do it all. get what you can, when you can. i know i will.

but explore, they did.
honestly, these videos are simply moving (ha! not just because the first one's called 'move'. sorry. that wasn't even on purpose). they get you where it counts, and remind you that you need to do it all, in every way possible... or you're missing what's important.
