From Our Blog:
NOBODY'S RIVER:
ANOTHER REASON TO CELEBRATE
|
The journey planned is rarely the journey taken. The Nobody's River expedition team had no idea how true this would be as they prepared to leave for a two-month expedition in Mongolia and Russia. Today, the team released the trailer to their film that documents their journey along the Amur River, one of the few remaining free-flowing rivers of the world. From their hilarious antics to deeply human struggles, these ladies shine a light on the soul of internal and external exploration-and show us that no matter what, there is always a reason to celebrate.  | | NOBODY'S RIVER - TRAILER |
