Video: Birth of the Idea

To AFAR founders Greg Sullivan and Joe Diaz, experiential travel is a way of life.

In this video, they explain that the magazine, like the entire company, promotes a philosophy of getting "out of your comfort zone," delving beneath the surface, and connecting to real places and real people.

Also see Greg's video interview with Fox Buisness News, Joe's piece featuring "Five career changing trips", and AFAR featured on Martha Stewart!  More media coverage here.
