This is My City: Finding the Soul of the City

Thursday, July 16th, 2009 | Cities, Media

Just recently stumbled upon a gem of online video for people who love discovering cities. Called “This is My City,” the hosts, Thomas Beug and Tim Kafalas, find a stranger to take them on a real heart and soul tour of the town. They skip the tour buses and the traps and go where the locals go, giving a much more authentic picture of the place. Filmed in HD and presented uncensored, this is one of the more interesting travel shows I’ve seen. I hope they continue to film episodes and I’d really love for this to get picked up, and hopefully it will maintain its authentic hook.

Here is the trailer based on the two pilot episodes in Philadelphia and Reykjavik, enjoy!
