Intro
Wednesday, September 28th, 2005I am a 24-year-old male with absolutely no travel experience. I have been working my ass off the last year and a half as a draftsman, living the North American cubical dream. Living in my mom’s basement, staring into a computer 50+ hours a week and scrimping and saving has afforded me the ability to travel the world for hopefully 2 plus years. I’m starting off in Australia on a one-year working visa and am going to take it from there. After Australia, I’m planning to head up to Asia but for right now I’m just taking it as it comes.
I’m not a big drinker or party animal, in fact I’m a bit of a tight wad and more of a get up at dawn to watch the sunrise and workout type of guy. I do enjoy a good party though and hope to meet many a cool people along the trail.
The most I expect out of this trip is a good time, exposure to other people, cultures and ideas and not sit in front of a computer 10 hours a day. I could go on saying that I want some sort of religious awakening, an epiphany of some sorts, perhaps figure out the meaning of life or “find myself” but I doubt that’ll happen. I’m just going to take it for what it is, a series of random chaotic events that I call life.
I am a fitness fanatic and live Crossfit.com. I may not have gym pass or an expensive home gym but I intend to keep going balls to the walls while traveling and plan to workout even more while on the road. Check out my fitness blog Crossfit Anywhere.
