Joseph Rosendo’s Travelscope jumps into its seventh season with five Emmy nominations, one Emmy win and 14 Telly Awards. Yet, as wonderful as awards are, far more impressive is the ongoing recognition the travel series receives from its viewers.
This season Joseph serves his viewers by transporting them across the planet to such exotic destinations as Japan’s little-visited Ogasawara islands, located more then 600 miles from the mainland and comprised of people with American roots, as well as two shows from the mountain kingdom of Bhutan, a country where its most important product is its peoples’ “gross national happiness.” Closer to home Joseph samples the California-style pleasures on hand for travelers to Los Cabos, Mexico and enters into a brave new world of travel in Nicaragua, a country recovered from civil war and ready to thrill visitors with its natural wonders.
