The Raw Travel team crosses over the Mississippi river to see how locals on the West Bank and well outside the tourist zones of New Orleans really live. Then Rob and crew embark upon a road trip to head deeper into rural Louisiana among the bayous and swamps to experience the unique language, delicious food, sights and sounds of French inspired Cajun culture.

Raw Travel host, Robert Rose, was a young child during the U.S. and Vietnamese War, but the disturbing images never left his mind. Decades later, Rob visits Vietnam for the first time and discovers a culturally rich, diverse land that is on the move and welcoming travelers from all over the world, including the United States. Join the crew as they taste the unique gastronomy (snakes, frogs, etc.) and get a feel for centuries old traditions and culture.

Manila, the bustling capital city of the Philippines, is a perfect backdrop for Raw Travelers wishing to experience an alternative look at authentic Filipino culture. Rob and crew sample the delicious food and music while exploring the unique diversity of this exceptional Pacific Island nation. The crew meets a plethora of locals to get a real taste of the welcoming nature of Filipinos and learn why the Philippines is famous the world over for its unrivaled hospitality.
