Ninety countries

A story from
every country.

One narrated episode per country — what the place is actually like, said out loud over the footage.

Who is behind it

I went to 90 countries and only started telling the stories properly at about sixty.

For years the footage piled up without a voice over it — clips that looked good and said nothing. What changed is the format: one country, one narrated episode, told the way you would tell a friend who is thinking of going.

I shoot it, cut it, and narrate it myself. That is not a creative principle, it is arithmetic — a crew does not fit in the budget of somebody who pays for their own flights. It also means a partner is booking one person, not a production.

The rest of the time I build software. That side pays for the side that does not, and it is why the tooling behind this site is mine rather than rented.

The country series

One country. One story.
Told properly.

Every country I visit gets a narrated episode — what the place is actually like, said out loud, over the footage. The globe is the index. The gaps are where I'm going next.
