FEARLESS JOURNEY IS A LOVE LETTER TO THE WORLD.

Chris is a self-appointed Ambassador of Fearlessness. In July of 2024, he traveled to Ukraine, “To meet new friends and see their beautiful country.” On his own, he has traveled to 85 of the 241 countries and territories recognized by the UN.

Home is 7 continents.

Chris goes off the beaten path to meet fascinating new friends who are doing great things and people living simple lives that are often overlooked. He doesn’t have a home, he sees the entire planet as HOME.

Real friends and purposeful journeys.

Where others see differences, Chris sees what we all have in common. Where others distrust, Chris believes in the essential goodness of most people.

The antidote to loneliness, isolation, and xenophobia is to “know” people. To become real friends in the real world.

Many have not yet dared, or may never have the experiences that show them the oneness of the human family.

That’s where the vicarious experiences of FEARLESS JOURNEY can have a huge impact. Taking global audiences on journeys they haven’t imagined.

It is not easy or glamorous.

The way Chris travels is based on living hand to mouth himself. He travels with nothing more than his backpack and trusts that hand gestures and a few shared words in a common language will provide connection.

He prefers out of the way places and a chance to see beyond the veneer of tourism to how people actually work and live, what they eat, the music they listen to, what they love and why.

Recently Chris was stopped by armed soldiers in Angola for photographing a government building. This lone traveler with autism was a complete surprise to them. He explained he loved their country, found it beautiful, and hoped others would visit and so they let him go in peace.

How can his life work in the long run?

Strange as it seems, it’s easier for Chris to be in a remote country with a few dollars than to face himself and make big changes in his life.

Chris dreams of having a partner, a romantic relationship and has no idea how to have that happen. He wants to unify his family before his father dies. Chris longs to be of greater service to others. He wants to become a nomadic inspirational speaker and advocate—creating more meaningful work for himself as he travels but he has been stopped by fear and.

But like all of us, Chris experiences being stopped in his tracks by fear of the unknown, by limits that are self-imposed or imposed by society. His struggle to become more and different provides the backbone of the film. The unlikely people Chris meets on the road and what they create together provide the unexpected twists and turns of the story.

Universal challenges.

Audiences related to the universal challenge to leave our familiar comfort zone, face the fear zone where we don’t yet have confidence, step into the learning zone where we acquire new skills, and then reach into the growth zone where we find our purpose and live our dreams. Facing what frightens us is always worth it by the end of the journey—because out of the comfort zone is the interesting place to be.

Let’s begin shooting as soon as possible.

Chris’s father has suffered two major strokes and brain surgery, so there’s a lot at stake with Chris’s family right now. And there are many hot spots flaring around the world with extremism on the rise.

Shifts in legacy media corporations and streaming and looming strikes offer challenges and timing opportunities for FEARLESS JOURNEY. Programming is needed and audiences are always hungry for new content and stories they haven’t seen before. We’ve got a singular story to tell. We just need the funding partners who will stand behind the film.

We’re ready to shoot in 2024-2025.

Our team is aligning with strategic partners, funders, and friends of the film who understand the good it will leverage—not just for tens of millions of people, but potentially even more.

1. We make the film.

2. We make sure it’s seen globally in limited theatrical release, film festivals, and streaming and

3. We make sure it has impact and is used by educators, and a large number of NGOs and nonprofits globally.

   Join us on this 3-part journey to give FEARLESS JOURNEY to the world.

OUR “LIMITATIONS” ARE THE BEGINNING—NOT THE END.

Chris has been robbed at gunpoint in Guatemala, been sick as a dog in Cuba, fed a giant tortoise on the notoriously remote Pitcairn Island, worked for a year to get to Antarctica, walked many miles in the sub-zero temperatures to see the Northern lights in Sweden. He has gone into North Korea with just a few hundred dollars and the desire to make new friends there and it became one of his favorite journeys.

Every trip unearths something surprising.

Chris recently discovered a half-brother he’d never met when he took a genetic test to sort out his parentage. An unexpected adventure with a new brother is now possible.

They say “tourists” don’t really get to know the places they’ve been but that “travelers” experience life beyond what they imagined was possible. That’s what it’s like to be a global nomad.

What is outside your current comfort zone?

What seems unlikely but is not impossible for you? What do you imagine stands in your way? What are you willing to risk to experience what you want from life before you die? Audiences will take on these questions. That’s the power of the story.

Past journeys

Chris has logged journeys to 85 countries on his own and considers the entire world his home.

And yes, that’s him alone in North Korea with a few hundred dollars figuring out what to do there, and how to get to the next country. He loved it. Now he’s planning a journey to Iran and to the South Pole.
