Millions of Americans have never traveled or left the state they grew up in. Many have dreamed of taking a special trip, but lacked the time or opportunity to do so.
In fact, a recent travel survey conducted by U.S. Cellular (NYSE: USM) found that about one in three Americans (30 percent) have never traveled across the country.
This summer, U.S. Cellular, a wireless carrier offering national network coverage, is teaming up with television personality, chef, and food writer Andrew Zimmern to premiere “Big Country.”
It is a five-episode digital series where the mobile carrier and Zimmern find deserving customers from across the U.S. and take them to places they’ve always wanted to visit, including New York City, Portland, Maine; Bend, Ore. and San Francisco.
“Big Country” is brought to you by U.S. Cellular and airs beginning July 20 online at www.USCellular.com/BigCountry, as well as on uLive.com, FoodNetwork.com and TravelChannel.com.
Edited vignettes will air on Food Network and Travel Channel.
