About Me

(Español abajo)
I'm a guy who has been traveling the world (especially Latin America) for the past 5-6 years and have made a lifetime of memories. Now I spend half the year in the USA, and half in Mexico traveling around. When I'm home in the USA I'm open to hosting travelers to share my little piece of the world with them all! It's the least I can do after so many people have opened their homes to me!

Soy un gringo bien enamorado de México y el resto de América Latina. Me he dedicado a viajar a través de los ultimos 5 años, y despues de recorrer casi todo, descubrí que México es lo más chingón. Explico todo en este video aquí - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-6XtZ0vu3s

Con mis canales en linea ahora busco promover la belleza y bueno de México, y cambiar estereotipos malos entre gringos y latinos, y mostrar que América es un continente y no un país solo. Quiero recorrer TODO MEXICO, ¿me ayudas hacerlo?

PHILOSOPHY

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” - Mark Twain

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

MANEJAR LA CARRETERA PANAMERICANA DESDE USA HASTA LA PATAGONIA. LA MEJOR COSA QUE HE HECHO EN MI VIDA // I drove my truck from the USA all the way to Patagonia, Argentina down the Pan American highway. Without a doubt the best thing I've ever done.

Hawaii, the Pacific Northwest, Backpacked Europe by myself, backpacked through SE Asia w/ my brother, been all over the Caribbean, Yosemite, Redwood Forest, skydiving, hiked Gunung Rinjani, driven my car all through Mexico & Central America etc.

CUBA! Cuba is seriously so amazing, go sooner than later.

A 10,000 mile roadtrip all around the USA was pretty rad too.

Gone to the World Cup in Brazil in 2014
