In a recent interview, filmmaker and photographer Jasper Itoriaga, who now identifies as a "citizen of the world," shared insights about his unique lifestyle. Jasper explained that the phrase "citizen of the world" resonates deeply with him due to his extensive travel experiences over the past six years. He has visited 50 countries, often relying on couch surfing, where he stays with hosts and offers his own home as a place for travelers in return. Jasper emphasized that such experiences have exposed him to diverse cultures and perspectives. He noted a troubling trend of increasing racism and bigotry among younger generations, attributing it to limited exposure and understanding of different cultures.
