One of the things I really enjoy is watching a movie that takes place somewhere I have traveled. It is really neat to watch a movie and be able to say, "I ate in that restaurant," or "I walked down that street." Netflix has more movies than anyone, including over 6,000 documentaries. And, with their very competitive pricing, watching a movie in the comfort of your own home is really inexpensive -- especially when you don't have to pay so much for the popcorn!

Travel Commentaries
In Siberia  Acclaimed British author Colin Thubron explores one of the world's least-known areas.  This is a fascinating look at an area of our world that is rich with history and culture.  And, an area most of us know very little about.

Mali Blues  This West Africa odyssey takes you from Senegal to Mauritania to the Malinese blues singer Boubacar Traore. A captivating portrait of current African culture!

On Mexican Time  Join novelist Tony Cohan and his wife as they leave their high-profile lives of L.A. on what began as a brief vacation to San Miguel de Allende.  They fell in love with the place, left their hotel room, rented a cottage, and eventually bought a 250-year-old hacienda which was quite a bit more than just your average "fixer upper."
