Do you ever like to watch travel shows or documentaries on TV?
In recent years, I've been a big fan of the travel channel. I adore Anthony Bourdain's show; I love his narration and his perspective of the places he goes.
I also kind of like the Globe Trekker show on PBS, depending on which host it is. I think I enjoy when the travel shows are in Japan, England, France, Italy and Tropical island locations the most- probabaly because those are the places I'd like to travel to the most, lol.

Yes, I am a fan of travel shows... I usually watch shows from TLC (formerly known as Discovery Travel and Lifestyle channel) and the Living Asia Channel. My favorites are Globe Trekker and Passport to Europe and South America by Samantha Brown. From Living Asia, I like them all but my favorites are Gone for the Weekend and On Foot. There is this show in NatGeo that I like named Word Travels.

In my home country there has been a documentary called 'The Secret Tourist'. I found it interesting and eye opening. In the past I have seen 'Lonely Planet'. It has shown me some amazing destinations. In the winter in my home country there are programs like 'Holiday' and 'Wish You Were Here'. I must say in prefer the actual traveling but travel shows can be nice to see.

So have I,but what a pity of my poor English! not only that,even more the little chance for me to watch the channel caused by my father hadn't liked it, since I was a child.He likes the history and always laugh at me the lack of humanistic culture.I hate him this.As if it isn't his interesting or affirmation,he would not affirm the others.even more if the channel he likes best on TV,while also the travel show is on,he mustn't let me to watch.

I do from time to time, but I don't really have a favorite show or presenter or anything. I mostly watch shows based on the destination, to be honest.
