It\u2019s a timely and timeless celebration of global cities and the people who make them unforgettable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Across four parts, Porowski will travel through Paris, Mexico City, London and New York City to explore food, places to stay, wellness spots and hidden corners of each city. Throughout the journey, he will learn the precision of Paris&#8217; most hyper-local and inventive Michelin-starred restaurants, paddle through centuries-old canals in Mexico City and connect with locals in each location.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTravel has always been how I connect more deeply with people, culture and myself,\u201d Porowski said. \u201cWorking with National Geographic again to explore these incredible cities through food, storytelling and local voices has been an unforgettable experience. I\u2019m so proud to be part of a series that celebrates not just where to go, but why it matters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Best of the World with Antoni Porowski<\/em> is being produced by ITV Studios\u2019 Twofour.
