Global Child's "Travel with Purpose" is a travel show featuring Augusto Valverde and Tridah Choudhury as they explore different countries and cultures, all while focusing on sustainable tourism and community development. The show seeks to showcase the beauty of different destinations while also highlighting ways to support local communities and preserve natural resources.

Each episode features a different location, from the bustling streets of Tokyo to the remote villages of Peru. Through interviews with locals and immersive experiences, viewers gain an understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities facing each destination. For example, in one episode, the hosts travel to Costa Rica to learn about the country's push for sustainability and how it's impacted the local community.

One of the show's main themes is sustainable tourism, and viewers learn about different initiatives and businesses that prioritize environmental and social responsibility. In Costa Rica, for example, the hosts visit a resort that uses solar panels and composting toilets to minimize its impact on the environment. They also tour a coffee plantation that employs members of the local community and promotes sustainable farming practices.

Beyond sustainability, "Travel with Purpose" also aims to showcase the human side of travel. Viewers get to know locals in each destination and learn about their customs, traditions, and stories. In Bali, the hosts participate in a traditional Hindu ceremony and learn about the importance of community in Balinese culture. In Peru, they visit a weaving cooperative run by women in a remote village, where they learn about the importance of preserving traditional crafts and supporting women's economic empowerment.

Throughout the show, the hosts emphasize the importance of responsible travel and how viewers can make a positive impact through their own travel choices. They encourage viewers to seek out eco-friendly accommodations, support locally-owned businesses, and engage in cultural exchange with respect and curiosity.

Overall, Global Child's "Travel with Purpose" is a visually stunning and socially conscious travel show that encourages viewers to see the world in a new light. Whether you're an avid traveler or just interested in learning more about different cultures, this show is a must-watch.
