Travel Tuesdays: Follow-up with Latraia D.

We personally first met Latraia D when we filmed and edited her high school basketball referee reel when she resided in Columbia, SC. She wanted to use the reel as a marketing tool to springboard a future career as an aspiring referee in the NCAA, WNBA, NBA, and Olympics.

We first introduced you to Latraia D. during our Take A Leap China Teaser video in 2012.  We have since followed-up with her, and she has moved on to Saudi Arabia.  Love it!!  Here is a fun video she did introducing her new friends who are from all over the world!!

Rhonda and I have been keeping some abnormal hours the last few nights.  We have interviewed via Skype two superb individuals thus far.  Latraia D. is a 25-year old SC-resident that moved to China 10 months ago to teach.  Arlene G. is a former Hollywood-based screenwriter and current "Roman" who has expanded her creativity with the launching of her home decor business, Arlene Gibbs Decor.  Check out excerpts of their interviews at http://indiegogo.com/takealeap.  The teaser videos can be found on the home page and in the gallery tab.

We will have one more teaser video to add by the weekend with our interview early in the AM with personal trainer Coach G., who currently resides in Rome, Italy.  And guess what....he has a South Carolina connection as well.

As a point of interest, we have landed an exclusive interview with a fashion media entrepreneur and world traveler (over 40 countries visited) during our visit in Florence, Italy in November.  We'll share more about this travelista in later blogs.

Don't forget about supporting our funding efforts.  Our goal is to raise $5500 by September 1.  We're a far cry from our goal, but we haven't lost faith.  Spread the word to your Facebook friends, twitter followers, email recipients, and word-of-mouth.

A closing note to this post is that Rhonda and I will be on the radio show Urban Scene with Don Frierson on Columbia, SC 620 AM on June 4 at the noon hour.  We're going to talk about We Connected Productions, LLC and our various projects, specifically Take A Leap.  Please take a listen if you live in the area or have access to internet radio.   Blessings!!
