The Traveling Poet is a concept that was created when a man with a love for music, poetry and art decided to let go of everything he ever knew and go on an adventure. In 2009, he moved into his van in order to travel around the United States and inspire people to express and use communication as a tool to create peace within our communities. Convinced that words can change the world, he grabbed a camera and hit the road to shoot a documentary and write a book about his journey. The Traveling Poet goes to schools, shelters, and poetry venues around the world to spread an inspirational message of education and inner peace. The project has evolved and now includes poets, photographer, travelers, businessmen, filmmakers, and artists from around the world; Joining forces to create a movement based on Education, & Self-Expression.
