Hey all! This is Hunter, born and bred in northern NJ. My whole life I've been longing to start my life journey and it has been started as of a month ago. I've always known there's something greater waiting for me outside of the sheltered suburbia of the tri-state area. I was hired by Glacier National Park to be a lead barista in the café of the park's oldest hotel, Many Glacier. Management has recently let a bunch of us go and I was a part of that lucky crew. So, most people would be super bummed about this, which I was for about a day. Two days off to clear my head and decide what I wanted to do, consult with friends and whatnot, I decided to finish what I started when I first left home: find where I am supposed to be, connect with great people, and to not chicken out on this amazing adventure and fall back on living a miserable life back east. So, I had 24 hours to pack my backpack and essentials and leave the property. Currently on my way to Seattle but the rest is uncertain ... and I couldn't be more excited.
