Having taken viewers across the U.S., Europe and notably Latin America over the past decade, TV traveler Samantha Brown recently began exploring Asia too.

This week, Ms. Brown was in Hong Kong promoting 'Great Weekends 2,' a Discovery networkseries about U.S. getaways that has just begun to air in Asia. But viewers in the U.S. most recently saw her in 'Samantha Brown's Asia,' which aired over the summer. It documents her first Asia-Pacific journey, last autumn, which took her through Cambodia, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan
