I'll keep this brief...
My REAL name is Aron... pronounced like Aaron, but spelled WAY more AWESOME!

Born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. After years of hoping/wishing/working, finally moved to San Diego, CA in July of 2014. I work remotely (for a regular 8-5 that is very flexible) and live "mobilely". Life is an adventure and I'm loving it! Time to tour this country visiting old friends and making new ones. I'm also racking up those travel points so I can see more of the WORLD and not just the U.S. Weeeeeeeeeeeee.....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled to Munich, Prague, Berlin with 2 great friends in one glorious trip! Sadly, it was my first time ever leaving US soil (age 29). With my "new life" though I plan on changing the hell outta that!

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know what to teach so why not briefly tell you about Louisville, Kentucky. It is home of the Louisville Slugger, Kentucky Derby, My Morning Jacket, VHS or Beta, Muhammed Ali, and producer of 90% (or something ridiculous like that) of North America's disco balls. "True story, bro." It is also where Lebowskifest was born.

Despite Kentucky stereotypes, Louisville is a beautiful, progressive (unlike the majority of the rest of the state) city that (for the most part) is constantly improving. Sure, I miss it... but I was OVERDUE to spread my wings and get out of the nest if you know what I mean.
