Dream Journey
February 2017 saw me embark upon a travel expedition through Scotland, Poland, France, Mexico, Belize and, (alas! ), back. Not only was it the first time I ventured out to Central America, but also the first time I seriously pushed my bravery boundaries to do a whole lot of things I'd never tried before. I defeated my life-long fear of scubadiving and skydiving, (the Carribbean vistas do help! - No danger I'd do that again in Aberdeen), I went zip-lining over a Mexican jungle, I tried habanero-packed streetfood, (failed at that miserably), and organic tequila, (managed that better;), I climbed a Maya pyramid in the middle of a Belizean rainforest and fed hibiscus flowers to a very extravagant donkey. Most importantly, however, I got to know some incredible people - from shamans, wanderers and artists to refugees, businesswomen and expat cowboys. And thanks to aaaall of that, I also got to know a little bit more about myself for visiting the most remote corners of our planet reminds you how different and yet how similar we all are. I'm looking forward to sharing my incredible experience in 5 exciting episodes of our travel series, which really turned out to be a Dream Journey:) I simply cannot wait for more! |

Road Less Traveled
Jonathan Legg is in Asia’s world city, Hong Kong! It’s an all out assault on the sense with all things opulent and luxurious; high end art collectors to the priciest wines in the world, super car aficionados and helicopter getaways from skyscraper rooftops; this is the road less traveled from a different point of view. But Hong Kong is more than just big money; Jonathan digs deep into the humanity to uncover a sect of unassuming Jains that are trying to practice their religion in a nondescript building. He gets a taste of Jeet Kun Do from Bruce Lee’s student, and this foray in martial arts also leads Jonathan deep into the legendary world of Hong Kong’s cinema’s stuntmen. Between exploring the back gardens of Sai Kung on a kayak and exploring Japanese fortifications on the island, this is Hong Kong like you’ve never seen before! |

Road Less Traveled Vietnam
Jonathan is back in Vietnam! Viewers might remember his jaunts in Hanoi from Season 2, where he picked up locals on his tandem bicycle in an effort to learn their stories.

In this epic voyage, he is in search of Vietnam’s modern day heroes; he uncovers the tale of farm rebellions, underground bunkers, a novel martial art cultivated in the farmlands, an underground village that survived countless American bombings, hidden amphitheaters, and the legendary Champa ruins. Between countless roadtrip-style stops, foodie finds, crossing the Hai Van pass, and coming across fascinating stories in his final destination of Ho Chi Minh, this is the best way to coronate season 5 - a proper motorcycle road trip through Vietnam. |

The Red List - Vultures
Six of Africa’s 11 Vulture species – the continent’s largest and most recognizable birds of prey – are now at a higher risk of extinction, according to the latest assessment of birds carried out by BirdLife International for the IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM. The main causes of the drop in African Vulture populations are thought to be indiscriminate poisonings, where the birds are drawn to poisoned baits, use of Vulture body parts in traditional medicine, and deliberate targeting by poachers, as the presence of Vultures can alert authorities to illegally killed big game carcasses. Robbing the African skies of one of their most iconic and spectacular groups of birds, the rapid decline of the continent’s Vultures has profound consequences for its people – as Vultures help stop the spread of diseases by cleaning up rotting carcasses. |

The Red List - Southern Ground Hornbill
The charismatic Southern Ground-Hornbill is a bird that many people already know well. They are culturally important as the ‘thunder' or 'rain’ birds and are a flagship species for the savannah biome. At present, Southern Ground-Hornbills are considered within South Africa as ‘Endangered', with their numbers outside of formally protected areas still declining. It is likely that the birds will soon meet the IUCN Red Data List Criteria as being ‘Critically Endangered’ in South Africa.
It’s estimated that only 1500 Ground-Hornbills are left in South Africa, of which half are safe within the protected areas. This means there are only an estimated 417 breeding groups in the whole of South Africa, data shows that, on average, only one chick is raised to adulthood every 9 years. The reasons for their decline are predominantly loss of habitat to croplands, bush-encroachment, overgrazing and plantations, loss of nesting trees, secondary poisoning and electrocution. |

The Red List - African Elephants
In a single decade between 1979 and 1989, half of all Africa’s Elephants were lost to the ivory trade. For the next decade the trade lay dormant and African Elephant populations began to recover. But a new crisis was brewing, fueled by demand for ivory particularly in China where a demographic and economic boom had taken place. Between 2002 and 2011 Maisels et al (2013) estimate that the world’s forest Elephant population was reduced by 62%. Our research estimates that the number of Elephants killed for their ivory between 2010 and 2012 was 100 000. The demand for ivory in the far East is the primary driver of the killing. In the four years up to 2014 the wholesale price of raw ivory in China tripled, reaching a per kilo dollar price of $2100. |

Young Penguins aren't able to take all the changes into account and are finding themselves 'trapped' in parts of the sea that can no longer support them even as better options are available. o poaching is currently at a crisis point. By the end of 2015, the number of African Rhinos killed by poachers had increased for the sixth year in a row with at least 1,338 Rhinos killed by poachers across Africa in 2015.

Horses
No other animal has influenced our lives as much as the horse. Our entire history is indivisibly linked to this animal. This documentary portrays a relationship that goes far beyond what we imagine. Although the use of horses has fallen drastically since the start of the Industrial Revolution, our hearts still beat as one; when we look through their eyes, we see ourselves. When we think of free- dom... of harmony... of beauty... of nobility... of strength... of speed... we think of horses as a reference point... |

Dream Journey - Cuncum - Mexico
February 2017 saw me embark upon a travel expedition through Scotland, Poland, France, Mexico, Belize and, (alas! ), back. Not only was it the first time I ventured out to Central America, but also the first time I seriously pushed my bravery boundaries to do a whole lot of things I'd never tried before. I defeated my life-long fear of scubadiving and skydiving, (the Carribbean vistas do help! - No danger I'd do that again in Aberdeen), I went zip-lining over a Mexican jungle, I tried habanero-packed streetfood, (failed at that miserably), and organic tequila, (managed that better;), I climbed a Maya pyramid in the middle of a Belizean rainforest and fed hibiscus flowers to a very extravagant donkey. Most importantly, however, I got to know some incredible people - from shamans, wanderers and artists to refugees, businesswomen and expat cowboys. And thanks to aaaall of that, I also got to know a little bit more about myself for visiting the most remote corners of our planet reminds you how different and yet how similar we all are. I'm looking forward to sharing my incredible experience in 5 exciting episodes of our travel series, which really turned out to be a Dream Journey:) I simply cannot wait for more! |

By the end of 2015, the number of African Rhinos killed by poachers had increased for the sixth year in a row with at least 1,338 Rhinos killed by poachers across Africa in 2015.
