Welcome to the adventure of a lifetime: a heartfelt, humor-filled and jeopardy-laced journey from Alaska to Argentina. Follow eternal optimist, passionate adventurer and former broker Leon Logothetis as he travels across the globe in a search for kindness.

On Tuesday, Feb. 5 at 10 p.m. ET/8 p.m. MT/7 p.m. PT, "Welcome Home" premieres on BYUtv. Hosts Treger and Rob Strasberg and their team of designers and volunteers furnish and decorate modest living spaces for struggling families coming out of homelessness and abuse shelters. They involve the local community, using donations or gently used goods to make places the families can call home. Produced by Litton Entertainment (The CW's One Magnificent Morning), the show also airs on The CW.
