Down to Earth with Zac Efron on Netflix
Rating: 9/10
Summary
This is the last episode in the series. The series follows Zac and Darin around the world as they search for healthy and sustainable ways to live. This episode focuses on the different benefits of plants. Zac was able to harvest and taste the Earth's bounty, and he even got to climb like a local up a large tree. Zac and Darin became one with nature after some healing plant baths. Then from grubs to sea cows, Zac gets lots of hands on experience with the wildlife. Overall, I enjoyed this episode and I am very intrigued by the healing properties of plants.
This was my second time watching the complete series and both times I loved it all. I wrote my reviews of the documentary series to help promote it, even if it just encourages one more person to see it. I am not sponsored, promoted, or connected to the series in any shape or form. I hope to continue to review other series that promote values I believe in such as travel, sustainability, conservation, and healthy living. I hope that from my reviews, you are inspired to take action to create a better and healthier world.
