    Finding Words to Live By in Dad's Letters

    When Dustin Grinnell learned that his Fulbright-National Geographic Fellowship application didn’t make the cut last fall, he quit his job and carried out the proposal on his own, traveling to China to learn about traditional Chinese medicine (documented on Instagram here). When he returned stateside, he took off on a 4,300-mile road trip on his 1982 Honda Nighthawk. Grinnell dedicated this video, produced in collaboration with Adrian Stratulat, to his father, whose favorite axiom inspired the journey: "Geologically speaking, a human life is only ten seconds long."

    This Couple Travels the World in a Toyota Pickup

    Ashley and Richard Giordano are behind Desk to Glory, an overland trip that the couple pursued in the usual fashion. In the fall of 2013, they quit their jobs, sold their belongings on Craigslist, rented their condo, and hit the road in a Toyota pickup. When a hiatus in their trip landed them back in Vancouver for work, they quickly realized that the truck had become home. The team behind Koyo Photography caught up with the couple to find out why. You can follow Koyo Photography on Facebook here and on Instagram here.

    20 times around the planet 23-year road trip
    Gunther Holtorf's 23-year road tripBack in 1989, as the Berlin Wall fell, Gunther Holtorf and his wife Christine set out on what was meant to be an 18-month tour of Africa in their Mercedes Benz G Wagen. Now, with more than 800,000km (500,000 miles) on the clock, Gunther is still going.

    The German former airline executive has travelled the equivalent of 20 times around the planet in the vehicle - which he calls Otto. He says he has never had a serious breakdown. Recently in Vietnam, Canadian-born photographer David Lemke joined Gunther on one section of his epic journey.
