A more ideal job than this she can’t quite imagine!  Sadie has spent time visiting and studying the local languages in Italy, Quebec and Argentina, and has traveled via backpack to almost every populated continent (still looking forward to Australia!). Her entertainment credits include originating the nationally touring educational hit “Calculus: The Musical!”  She has been vegetarian since the approximate age of 12 (in the early ’90s) and committed to veganism in 2010.

Joe Bourguignon is your fearless and snack-loving cameraman.

ABOUT JOE:  Inspired by parents to travel the world at a young age by living abroad, Joe has been all over: Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, and too many other places to be interesting to list.  He has a degree in Film and began working in the film industry in San Francisco, followed by a progression into his main passion, Documentary Film.  He has filmed a few feature length projects along with many smaller shorts, some of which have gotten awards.  He went vegan recently (~2009) and has been enjoying delicious healthy food ever since.  If you want to get on his good side, bring him something spicy!
