Matt Harding decided to quit his job and travel the world where he began shooting videos of himself doing a little dance in front of monuments. He started a website called “Where the Hell is Matt” and became famous thanks to his videos–so famous, in fact, that Stride Gum proceeded to sponsor his next tour.
This is his 2008 video and is a compilation of 42 countries, and is surprisingly gorgeous and moving. It shows joy, harmony, and somehow exemplifies a true appreciation for the beauty and diversity of each culture. Additionally, it is dubbed by a song entitled “Praan” which was written just for this video, and I think is beautiful and absolutely perfect for this video. You can buy it at the Amazon mp3 store.
Well done, Matt!

Awesome concept! This is the third time I’ve watched his video, and each time I see it I appreciate it more. The travel logistics alone had to be a huge undertaking not to mention the cost.
