Luke Fraser and his good friend Bubby Vernon planned a trip to see the world while in the thick of their post-secondary education. Once they finally completed university, they flew to New Zealand and began their year-long journey to see the world.
Spending a month in New Zealand immersed in the mountain ranges, swimming below waterfalls and hitchhiking, the trip has the stuff of legends.
Vernon and Fraser traveled a month in a camper-van in Australia, a road trip with frequent stops to let their spontaneity take hold. Filled with complete freedom, the two perform back flips while cliff-diving, sleep in hammocks, sip drinks next to the beach, showing the very best life has to offer.
Barcelona, Spain
Having visited 18 countries on their trip from New Zealand to many European countries including Barcelona, Spain, Portugal, and Italy, the guys have come up with 10 reasons why anyone and everyone should drop what they are doing to “jet off and go see the world.”
One of Portugal’s many beautiful views.
Some reasons include: to experience new cultures, admire Mother Nature’s beauty, meet new people and become a traveller, not a tourist. Their most prominent phrase, “come back with a story to tell,” is why they shared their adventure, giving viewers enough motivation to compel them to travel to unfamiliar lands and into the great outdoors.
