The 195 - A Travel Show to Change the World

WHO I AM

I am an entrepreneur.  I am an explorer.  I am a philanthropist.   I am a storyteller.   I am traveling to all 195 countries in the world, and when I'm done, I'll be less than one of 30 people and of that number, 10 women, to accomplish this goal.  For me though, it's not about ticking boxes.  I am making a difference in the lives of the women, children, families and individuals who I have the privilege to meet.  I am advocating on their behalf and sharing their stories to help improve their futures.  


THE 195 TRAVEL SHOW

The 195 travel show takes you to all 195 countries in the world.  The show conceptually combines the luxury of Cribs and Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous through high-end hotels, the heart of  Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown through deep connection with culture and locals, and a reality-tv entertainment of having a celebrity guest on each episode. Our show has heart; with our guest, we will also volunteer at impactful philanthropic organizations in the world.  We're here to do good and to share stories with you.  We will teach women in Afghanistan, who will be future leaders in government, we will work with women entrepreneurs in Rwanda and we will feed 20,000 children in Zimbabwe.  And that's just to start.

WHAT FUNDS WILL BE USED FOR

To change the world, we need to get the right team together, along with equipment, pre and post production expenses.  We have a talented crew of director, camerawoman, producer, writers and the small village that it will take to get our show premier and episodes made.  Your contribution will go towards their salaries, pre-and post production costs, editors and sound experts associated with creating the best travel show on television.  All of our team is NYC-based,  so you're contributing to the talented writers, Executive Producer, camerawoman and post-production team.  We have a story to tell, and your generous contributions will make The 195 a reality.
