About Around the world 100 years ago

A hundred years ago, long-distance travel became popular and a social event instead of being expeditions as before. The new feeling of wanderlust arises. The five-part series depicts a journey around the globe with previously unreleased film footage from the 1920's and 1930's, photographs by onboard photographers, and travel writer's notes.
