Interactive Map

The urge to travel alone is easily dated to when I first started driving, and dreamed of becoming a trucker. My first global endeavor was not until later, but sparked a keen wanderlust nevertheless.

Stuck in the 9-5 at the moment, but soon enough the itch won't be scratched from tantalizing minibreaks, hopefully around the time my wallet has swelled appropriately, and my eyes are back to the globe.

My passions are family (sanguine and other), politics, English, and cuisine.
