Who is Leon Logothetis and why does he have a Netflix show? What is his story and why is it significant? Logothetis had it allprestigious job, money, a home, a beautiful girlfriend and a friendly dog. But he traded it all in to live his dreams. His inner rebel, the part of him that yearns to follow his dreams, once again wanted to feel the magic of the human experience by connecting with people through the language of kindness. This is what prompted him to travel the world relying solely on the kindness and generosity of strangers. And now, he is giving back. "I have always had a passion for interacting with people," says Logothetis. "I love the camaraderie of making new friends and helping those that are deserving, and I treasure the adventure of travel."

During his six-month global adventure, Leon traveled to 20 countries with no food or pre-planned accommodations. Leon discovered that people are so open to helping those in need; all one must do is open their heart. For example, in Pittsburgh, he met a homeless man named Tony who had nothing but a bag of clothes. He took Leon in, fed him, gave him a place to stay and protected him through the night. The experience will forever live in Leon's heart. If a man with nothing could give so much from his heart how could he ever repay him? You'll have to watch the show to find out!

It demonstrates that true wealth is in our hearts, not in our wallets.
