Northern Cali in a droptop Benz – PCH, Redwoods, Golden Gate, Windows XP Hill
In August of ’22 I took a week off to go to Northern cali for a reggae festival. The show was great, but I was even more stoked to rent a Mercedes SLK for a week to explore California. Having been to So’Cal before, I knew that I now needed to see what the northern…

Top down in the M3 – drives I will never forget
Before I sold everything to travel the world and do weird shit, I was big into anything that would take my mind off the boredom and monotony of living in one place long term without many friends and without much to see or do. Since I had money, the answer for me was cool cars.…

How I found work in Alaska’s fishing industry
The fishing industry in Alaska is not what I expected in many ways, but in others it is exactly what I expected. There are a few types of people who go for this type of work. In the canneries especially you’ll see a lot of migrant workers taking advantage of opportunities that they couldn’t get…

Getting hit by a male nurse on a motorcycle
This is the story of my second moto crash. I didn’t get any pictures of the first because I had to get the hell outta there faster (I was holding up a bus and I hit a taxi with a passenger – they needed to bounce). Nobody got hurt in any case. Anyway, I’m chilling…

How I got my Colombian moto license and bought my first bike
In Colombia, they are called motos, instead of motorcycles. This is fitting, not just because that is a shortened version of the Spanish word for motorcycle (motocicleta), but because it is a cute word too. Since the motos in Colombia are almost all tiny, at least by American standards, it feels more appropriate to call…

Working in an Alaskan salmon cannery
Alaska – June to July 2025 I always loved salmon. Looking back on my youth, I can recall the first time the salmon came to me in a dream. The seed was planted, but like a stomache ending in a long and satisfying fart, it took a long time to finally come out. The salmon…

Welcome to the Ride
Yo, what’s good. Now that I’m like 30, and I have been doing this a while, I figure I should start writing some shit down about my adventures. People are always telling me I should write a book or start a blog, and while I have already written books and made hundreds of blogs, they…
