Video Synopsis

Fashion reflects the mood of an era and past trends are visual markers of historical change. As my 13-year-old daughter Zoe heads into her teens, I want her to be aware of history and dress for self-expression rather than buying into the messages of the fashion industry.

Want to see more adventures with Lara and Zoe? Check out their Journey to Vietnam and go eagle watching with them at Squamish’s Sunwolf Centre.

Lara is the co-founder of Randomlink Interactive Inc. She is equally at home in front of the camera and on the road. As a child, she acted in a weekly television series, and regularly accompanied her tour host/organizer mother on international travels. Travel is in her blood, and Hit the Road builds on her previous travels with her daughter Zoe – including three months they spent travelling together across Africa when Zoe was six years old. Hit the Road has been up for two Webbies with previous episodes, “The Lost Cowgirl” and “Fishing for Time.”
