Torbjørn C. Pedersen, known online as Once Upon A Saga,  has visited 203 countries and is on the verge of setting a world record… he is short just nine countries to gain the title of traveling to all countries in the world in a single journey without taking an airplane: the ultimate global expedition.  We were lucky to speak to him about his 7 year odyssey which he chronicles on his blog and social media channels as Once Upon A Saga.

Syatt was founded by a mother and two daughters—TeamHood: Marcia, Erika, and Ebony Hood—with a mission to increase access to outdoor spaces for Black and Brown youth, while simultaneously creating and inspiring joy in places that haven’t traditionally been safe or welcoming to people of color.
