It’s in many ways the opposite of the slickly-produced Parts Unknown. It feels more like a vlogging series, as it’s just her going around the beautiful land of Tanzania with her backpack. At every turn, it shows you just how much fun, adventurous and low-budget travel can be.
The show has a fun dynamic, as the host is an intellectual and obsessed with culture.
It also shows the process of getting there, and the serendipitous events that can lead to unexpected adventures. It feels totally unscripted and improvised, like a raw cut of what you might experience yourself if you set out to travel around Tanzania
The show takes you places. Along the way, it will give you a greater appreciation of how cultures mash together and how different (culinary) influences can intermingle.
