Dear Bare Feet™ Fans!

March was a very busy month and we are so excited about what's in store for April! First of all, I am happy to announce that our webseries Bare Feet™ with Mickela Mallozzi will finally premiere this month - we shot our first trip in Italy almost two years ago, and we have begun to edit out the episodes from our Minturno trip (my family's hometown). It has been a long journey since then, and we are so proud to present the series! Look out for our first episode, scheduled to go live on Thursday, April 19th. And of course, be sure to tune in to the Travel Bare Feet™ YouTube channel every Thursday for new episodes!

And secondly, I want to ask for your consideration in supporting our official Kickstarter page for the Bare Feet™ webseries. This funding will help continue bringing you beautiful and entertaining videos of dance and celebration from around the globe. Please help support our cause, and spread the word to your friends - we have a limited amount of time to raise $15,000! This Kickstarter initiative will help maintain the series for the next two years, supporting our trips to Malaysia, Argentina, Macau, Spain, and more! Every little bit helps, and we have some cool rewards in store for you, so please check it out - thank you!
