LONELY PLANET SIX DEGREES
 
In a refreshing twist on the travel genre, Lonely Planet Six Degrees sets out to explore some of the world’s most happening cities by connecting with the people who live in them – showing that it’s the people who live in a city, the lives they lead, and the stories they tell that give a place soul, rather than just the bricks and mortar.

Beach House Pictures worked with Lonely Planet TV on the third series of Lonely Planet Six Degrees featuring the cities Dublin, Istanbul, Bangkok, Taipei, Kaohsiung, Tokyo, Perth, Miami and Rio de Janeiro.
