CURRENT MISSION

Survive another 10 months of work while saving money to sail from the east coast of the US to Northern California and (if I like it) beyond.

ABOUT ME

Just left my career after 9+ years. Using this time to encourage others to get outside of their comfort zone via my travel experiences, both good and bad. For more info check out my website www.choosingadventure.com

PHILOSOPHY

Your comfort zone is evil.

A sense of adventure and humor is all that is required for a full life.

To live alone only costs your life.

Embrace difference as diversity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bought a 30 year old Toyota Land Cruiser in Lima, Peru and drove 22,000 kilometers around South America, to include Patagonia and the Andean mountains of Peru.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are driving around third world countries and need to find extended parking, go to a mechanic. Usually you can get small things fixed and find safe parking for a fraction of garage prices.

Patagonia is amazing in April, don't let anyone tell you different.
