Don Bunnell

As a kid, he dreamt of architecture and made movies with friends. Though sidetracked into law, a stint in the corporate world, then entrepreneurship in clean energy and sustainable housing, his passion for travel, film, and architecture never faded. Born in Italy, growing up in Paris until he was 5, and living in China for 17 years and Australia for 3 (where he attended architecture school for fun in his 40s), and traveling to over 60 countries, Don channeled his experiences into a travel platform built around authenticity, design, and discovery. He gets you because he’s lived your travel frustrations—and triumphs—firsthand. His perfectionist tendencies mean he’s been known to rearrange hotel furniture for better feng shui before filming—leaving confused housekeeping staff in his wake.
