Kevin Boueri
Kevin Boueri is a passionate hiker, photographer, and Anthropology PhD candidate at Boston University. With a research interest in heritage tourism and social memory, Kevin recently completed 18 months of fieldwork in his home country of Lebanon, focusing on the Lebanon Mountain Trail. As a part of his dissertation research, Kevin has walked the length of the LMT twice, (re)discovering his own country alongside other hikers and sharing in their journeys. During his fieldwork, Kevin spent over a year assisting the Lebanon Mountain Trail Association in their efforts to develop the trail’s infrastructure and bolster community conservation initiatives. Production for this documentary relies on Kevin’s professional network in Lebanon, knowledge of the LMT’s touristic infrastructure, and photographer’s eye for Lebanon’s “hidden gems” found on the LMT.
