  • What it’s like chasing the Runner’s High

    Oh hey there, just stopping in here for a breather. The post you’re about to read is something that has sat in my drafts for quite some time; the timelines may not make sense, but the takeaways are still all so relevant. Makes sense? No? Too bad, keep up. First…

  • Guess who’s back… back again

    Guess who’s back… back again

    So I lied. That whole thing about continuing writing when I got home? Yeah I EPICALLY failed at that. Matter of fact, I failed a lot of the things I said I was going to do. How badly you ask? Let’s do a quick review why don’t we: Yeah I…

    Letting the credits roll: an epilogue

    So this is my actual goodbye. 6 countries. 189 days. Innumerable memories. It’s been unbelievable. But I’ve already recounted a vast chunk of my trip to you all. Here. So instead of doing it again, I want to focus on what I’m grateful for.

    The day has finally come. You can set a countdown clock for when you get to stop watching my obnoxious travel photo dumps over a cup of coffee before your morning commute (if you have Instagram that is… and if you haven’t already muted or, better yet, blocked me). I’m…

    Getting mugged & missing my flight but on we go

    Rather than start this one with an over-dramatic one-liner as I usually do, I think the title takes care of that enough. Instead I’ll start with I’m all good no need to worry!

  • How Steve Jobs nearly made me miss the W-trek

    How Steve Jobs nearly made me miss the W-trek

    Okay. A little out of order in my timeline here but as I sit on the bus panting after sprinting a mile uphill with 15kgs on my back, I think this qualifies as special circumstance. I’m in Patagonia. Surprise! Specifically in Chile since I’m officially out of Argentina for this…

  • A divine moment amongst the clouds

    Could I feel my hands or toes? Nope. But it didn’t matter because I was experiencing a gift from God. A crew of us went to Bariloche last weekend – the “gateway” to Patagonia. It’s a beautiful small city located on a lake in Argentina that is heavily trafficked by…
