Bumming It: The Journey Begins!

Wow, an odd feeling of quiet anticipation comes over me whenever I'm set to make another big transition. It's been ten years of transitions, yet I'm still not ready to settle down. Instead, I want this to be my most epic journey yet and I want to bring you along for the ride.

I've always been of the opinion that, rather than curating my experiences for others, I should be living in the moment. But I've also found that it's the friends I make along the way that make life more enjoyable and meaningful. So, rather than focusing on producing unrealistic content meant to go viral, I want to give you a raw and unfiltered view. I want to share my experiences with a community of fellow travelers interested in living life to the fullest. Follow my travels and maybe you'll even be inspired to get out there and try it for yourself.

Of course, this is all about bumming it and I'll be sparing every expense to keep the journey going. I'll be challenging myself to spend as little as possible. That means camping out every night and avoiding eating out. The less I spend, the longer I get to stay out on the road.

To begin, I'll be riding my bike from Key West to California, but I don't have the funds to continue indefinitely. With your help, I'm hoping to continue on to hike the Pacific Crest Trail and ride my bike to the tip of Argentina. Even just following my social media accounts is enough, and in return, I'll keep you updated with regular posts about my travels.

Before I go, I just wanted to thank all of the people over the years who gave me a ride or bought me a meal while I was out hiking or biking. It's always been a pleasure and I look forward to making even more friends along the way.

Rest in Peace, Rob
