Real people. Real places. Real stories.

We’re Chad and Lisa, an indie content creation team building a community through travel videos, food tastings, and documentary-style YouTube storytelling. What started as a one-way ticket turned into a studio dedicated to capturing the heart of the people and places we meet along the way.

No Destination Necessary

Travel that’s more than a checklist.
This channel features unscripted adventures, cultural experiences, and hidden gems you won’t find in a guidebook. Perfect for travelers, locals, and lifelong learners alike.

Tasting Our Way

Where food and storytelling meet.
From breweries and breakfast joints to family-run restaurants, this channel showcases the flavor of a place through the food on its tables and the people behind it.

Why We Tell Stories

We believe meaningful travel content should do more than entertain—it should connect. Our goal is to inspire curiosity, elevate local voices, and create videos that feel both personal and universal.

Whether it’s a small-town celebration, a behind-the-scenes tasting, or a quiet conversation with a local, we’re here to document what matters.
