It’s the destination, not the journey. I make travel videos; tell stories; visit movie locations; have fun traveling while I still can.
My name is Joe and I spent a long time not flying and not traveling. A few years ago I traveled to Asia on three business trips, endured those long flights and managed to have a great time in spite of the air travel. I decided to start a travel channel to tell stories of the places I saw and the things I did. I'm still not a fan of flying, but I do my best to put out of my mind the specter of a horrible, fiery, burned beyond recognition death and appreciate the places I get to see and visit.
So enjoy my videos, subscribe to the channel, tell your friends and join me on my travels.

It's the first day of spring; winter has been brutal this year and I look forward to the nice weather. This video was shot at the Allan Gardens Conservatory, a free attraction in Toronto open every day and featuring nice little greenhouses with pretty flowers.

In the west end of Tokyo you will find Mount Takao, a mountain that is considered a sacred place where you will find a Buddhist temple as well as numerous hiking trails. It took me two hours, but I eventually made my way to the top of the mountain. It was a tough hike, but it was completely worth it. It's a beautiful place and I would highly recommend paying a visit.

We visited an Ikea in Italy. It was almost exactly the same thing except the signs are in Italian and the food they serve at their restaurant is pasta. But other than that, it's the exact same store, same merchandise and same rat maze you walk through.

Just a short walk from New Town in Edinburgh you will find the Water of Leith, a pretty little river that winds its way through the city. My son and I took a walk along the footpath beside the river when we visited a few years ago. It was a beautiful walk and the weather was perfect. In the video my son says he saw a duck. Apparently I filmed the duck, but did not see it. See if you can spot the duck on the water floating off screen at one point. We love the duck.

**This is an audio described version of Episode 7 with added narration for blind and low vision people.**
It’s Episode 7 of the Nervous Flyer Travel Show and I take my first trip to St. John’s; the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador.
It’s a beautiful part of the country, amazing scenery and friendly people and the weather during our trip was perfect. I shot some great footage.
We hiked to the top of Signal Hill, saw the sun come up over Cape Spear, Canada’s easternmost point, and went on a puffin and whale watching tour. We lucked out and saw quite a few whales on our tour. I visited a few TV locations and also got screeched in, the ceremony where you become an honourary Newfoundlander.
This episode turned out very well; I’m very proud of it; it’s the prettiest episode I’ve done so far. I’m feeling very grateful to be able to travel with my family and that I’m still healthy enough to drag myself up these hills. It’s a cliché, but be grateful for good health. I’m starting to deal with some vision loss, nothing major yet, but I’m on glaucoma watch and taking medicine to stave it off. The point is, do the things you enjoy, that give you a purpose. As a dear friend says, tomorrow is not promised. My goal is to keep making new episodes while I can so we’ll see what 2026 has in store.
Hope you enjoy the episode; like, share the video, subscribe to the channel if you haven’t already and spread the word. Thanks to everyone for their kind words and support.
**Just a quick note, if you’re able to view this video on a full size computer monitor or television, then do so. The details of the bird and whale watching segment are a lot better on a bigger screen.

This is a preview clip from Episode #7 of The Nervous Flyer Travel Show. The link to the full episode is below.
I visited St. John's in Newfoundland & Labrador for the first time. It's easily the prettiest episode I've done so far. I took a whale watching excursion, hiked to the top of Signal Hill and tried cod tongue and moose burger for the first time. I also visited a few TV locations around the city from Hudson & Rex and Republic of Doyle. I also got screeched in, the ceremony where you become an honourary Newfoundlander.
In this preview clip, I take you through the main events that make up the screeching ceremony, such as eating some Newfoundland steak, kissing the cod and downing a shot of screech. It was a lot of fun

In Rome you can visit the Campo de' Fiori, a small square that has vendors in the daytime and events, music and nightlife in the evenings. It is best known for the statue of Giordano Bruno, which marks the exact spot in 1600 when he was executed, burned alive by the church for heresy. His crimes included the belief that the stars were distant suns that might have planets in their orbit. He expressed the possibility of life on other planets and suggested that the Earth was not at the center of the universe, but a planet orbiting the sun. In modern times Bruno was revered as a martyr and a symbol of free thought and expression.
