Hey folks, this thread is to suggest movies to watch for this year's jamboree. Any suggestions should be related to travel culture in some way, although shorts/skits/youtube videos between movies can be just about anything. What travel related movies do you think others need to see?

I just came across this website, and I thought it might be useful to some folks. It's an interactive map of festivals around the world that can be filtered by music genre. It didn't have a TON of stuff in the heavy metal category, but I figured some of you might find it useful. You can submit...

by theplaidzebra.com November 20, 2016 Every traveller and nomad likes to think they’re an expert on safety when it comes to travel. They know that South-East Asia isn’t as dangerous as people make it out to be. They know that Europe isn’t really like the movie Taken, unless you share a taxi...

A few days ago some friends of mine from Los Angeles came out to visit me in Slab City, so I decided to show them the Slab City golf course. It's been around for quite some time, but it was only recently that I took the time to explore it. Its a completely legitimate golf course and the person...

Here's a short video showing what the kitchen looks like after a major sandstorm came through, caking almost everything in a fine layer of dirt.

In this video I take a look at the trading circle that happens every Saturday in Slab City. Also, my friend Balu is grilling a pig to share with folks in the slabs, and I end this day showing off just one of the many epic sunsets we get out here.
