My Timeline Of Travel
9 Years and counting
Since I took my first road trip in 2013, I developed a passion for the open road, wild places and photography.
I didn’t really start living the nomad life until 2017 when I went to Yellowstone to work concessions for a season.
Below is an account of the dates of my travels. Starting with my western USA road trips, and finishing up where I currently am located.
