The Emerald City Adventure Troupe

Team Purpose: Each member of the team is artistic, yet each individual has a preference. There is a writer, an actor, a director, and a filmmaker, but the lines between each are blurred, and the path before each is infinitely forked. The work of entertainers is certainly a possibility, but in the present it is only a possibility, the direction we are facing having taken only a few steps. The real world lies before us, and by learning about the paths of others we can perhaps form our own.

Series Description

Roadtrip Nation's fifth season spans two continents; as one team of college students from the University of Miami cross the United States, another team of young Australians hit the road “down under”. Despite living half a world away, both teams of roadtrippers share a common quest to connect with inspiring individuals who have discovered their own roads in life. Roadtrip Nation 2008 documents these journeys of self-discovery in a free-spirited, adventurous series that encourages people all across the globe to move outside their comfort zones and explore the world.
