How I ended up in Venezuela - Travel with me in 360 VR

This is 360 video: you can change the angle of view by moving your phone.

My Story:
I booked a one way ticket to Central America to see what I was really made of. 10 months and 8 countries later I found myself in South America, contemplating if I should visit Venezuela. People had told me not to visit, they told me it was too dangerous, but is it fair to sum up a whole country with one word, "dangerous." I went to go see with my own eyes and what I saw surprised me.

I travel alone with a 360 camera so I can bring you along and make you feel like you were there with me.  Move your phone around and look at what peaks your interest as I discover this country few dare to visit.

As a storyteller, I feel that virtual reality and 360 videos has the potential to change how we watch documentaries since we can now experience the story instead of simply watching it. My focus as a filmmaker is to push the boundaries of VR through this series as I revisit my 16 month, solo backpacking adventure through Central and South America.

New episode every Friday at 9PM EST.
