Let's Start From Here

I've been keeping a journal for the past 13 years and I finally want to share some of my stories with the rest of the world. I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois but have been living in Dublin, Ireland for the past 9 months. Ever since I first traveled outside of the United States in 2005 I knew I was destined to continue to travel the world.

I want to use this blog to share my experiences with all of you and also give some travel tips that will allow you to trek lightly and inexpensively. I will take you through some excerpts from my journal as well as other memorable stories that have stuck with me after all these years. It might not be in chronological order but in the end the story will reveal itself. Along with the truth I want to share my passion for fiction writing. You can find the leakings of my subconscious, my dreams, and my everyday unique way of thinking through my compositions in the 'Short Stories' section.

I'd like to use this space as a creative outlet for myself, a guide for travelers, and eventually for a million dollar book deal so I can continue to live a life of continuous adventure.
