Welcome back to the 10 Adventures podcast. In today's episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Daniel Troia, a filmmaker with a remarkable story. Daniel embarked on a cross-country bike journey across America, documenting his experiences in the film "We Are All In This Together." What sets this journey apart is that Daniel undertook this adventure with no money, no food, relying solely on the kindness of strangers. It's a unique and inspiring project that delves into human connection amid the backdrop of societal divisions.
If you're intrigued by Daniel's incredible adventure and want to witness the transformative power of empathy, I highly recommend checking out his film, "We Are All In This Together." You can find it on popular streaming platforms such as Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and Google Play. For more details about the film and to connect with Daniel, visit his website at https://www.weareallinthistogethermovie.com/
