Trails From The East ~ Rob Hof Seeks Humanity

Many thanks to Cambridge CCTV for casting LinkTV's travel series Trails From The East (or Sporen uit het Oosten in Dutch) Tonight, I saw Episode 7, Part 2 -- India. Fantastic! Overall, Dutch anthropologist-filmmaker Rob Hof and team go on an epic 20,000 km rail-roadtrip -- starting in Vietnam, heading west till the Balkans -- and meet and see many peoples and cultures along the way! LinkTV describes it thus...

"Trails from the East is a 13-part documentary series that chronicles a train voyage from the East to the West, through fast-changing societies, along the birthplaces of five world religions. The series tackles some of the great questions of today’s globalizing world. How do people cope with the continuing globalization? Is it a threat or an opportunity?"

All Trails episodes can be viewed online -- please say Thanks to LinkTV with your $upport -- and see here the series intro from Hof where he relishes everyday people's "ambition to participate" in globalization and celebrates being "open to the other"...
