Traveler Season 1 (2019)

I so enjoyed this travelogue, which started out with Ryu Jun-yeol arriving ahead of Lee Je-hoon in Havana, spending time travelling 'alone' (apart from production crew) and then being joined by LJH for more experiences.
I've backpacked and this felt quite real, even though, if push came to shove, I doubt they'd ever have ended up sleeping on a beach!
It felt very unscripted in that they seemed to genuinely make their own decisions on where to go and what to do.
Both actors seem genuinely nice people and fit together very well as travel companions.
The sights, sounds and almost smells even, are beautifully filmed. Many characters and experiences are shared, which are uniquely found when travelling independently (something I've done a fair bit of).
A lovely way to visit another country and culture, from the comfort of one's home, with 2 lovely guides!
