Troy Ozuna is the creator of Earth Story, which has over 35,000 followers on Youtube. Troy moved to Las Vegas when he was 7 years old, where he grew up and graduated from UNLV with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Film. After spending some time in the work force, upon graduation, Troy decided to do what every young adult balks at doing, traveling the country in an old-school van. With what started, in 2017, as a soul-searching journey across the pacific coast blossoms into a creative and narrative documentation of his side adventures, events, people, and discoveries of the universe. Earth Story is much more than just a Youtube channel, it is a mission to unite the cultures, ideas, and people from all across the globe. This 87-minute conversation is filled with boat adventures, epiphanies, inspiration, and the ever-so-popular van life.
*We did experience some technical difficulties throughout the conversation and lost connection at 30:48 causing us to restart the video recording. We are working on the fixes moving forward*
