The Latest News From Anywhere!

Where are we going next? Seriously... we dont know and are hoping you can help us work it out.

The Caravan

10 years ago some of us shared an incredible adventure when we formed the Sustainable Solutions Caravan and traveled all the way from San Francisco to Costa Rica in a couple of modded out school buses and one bad ass truck that all ran on straight vegetable oil.  We wanted to demonstrate that there are viable alternatives to petroleum as our primary fuel source, and as is the case with diesel engine, that alternative has existed for over 100 years (in 1893 the original diesel ran on peanut oil).

It’s been over a century now and I am sure you have noticed in your time here, that there have been remarkable advances in technology, and recently we have finally seen a renewed interest in alternative fuel vehicles.

We decided that it would be a good idea to organize a new caravan with newfangled green vehicles and explore advances in sustainable technologies while traveling from Sweden to South Africa.   We are in the early planning stages more details will be made available as this year progresses.  While though this isn’t an “Anywhere” segment it is a project we’re involved with and want to see blossom.  We will provide information about how you can get involved and support the project in the near future, sign up for more information bellow the video.

Bellow is a video from our first adventure:

Share Your Stories

One of the things that makes “Anywhere!” such a great show is that we are recreating crazy travel stories.  If you’ve traveled much, I am sure you have at least one amazing story that you wheel out at parties.  We want you to share your best, most wonderful, or horrible, delightful, unbelievable, miraculous, and insane tales from your  journeys and we’ll create reenactments of the best ones.  We’ll either shoot them on location near where they occurred, fake it here in the U.S. or animate those really crazy or stories.

Submit your stories bellow, either write you story out in the comments bellow or share a link to a Youtube or Vimeo video of you telling your best most reenactment worthy travel story.

Also take a moment to vote up or down the stories that you like.

Where to Next?

WhereToNextThis is the place to tell us about the most amazing destinations, the places in the world that you have heard about and think we should visit.  Maybe you think we should go to Bangladesh and visit a garment factory to look in on the working conditions, or perhaps to the island of Koh Phangan in Thailand to visit the legendary full moon party, or to see how close we can get to Fukishima, or maybe you have heard tale of a levitating sadhu in India.  Tell us where you want us to go and why.  It can be to enjoy a party, have our minds blown, to shine some light on some of the darkness in the world or just because you think it will be funny to see me writhe in terror on one of the worlds most dangerous road ways or drink magic reindeer piss with a Siberian shaman.  We are totally open to your suggestions

Leave your destination ideas bellow in the comment section.  Then vote up the ideas you like best and down the ones you loathe.   We’ll then compile the most popular destinations for a vote.  Depending on the episode we may be focused on a particular continent.  Right now we have our eyes on Asia, but we want to here all your ideas.
