I'm fired up on:

Extreme People--those who ignore the rest and do what makes them happy, catching big fish, bonfires with beer, books you can't turn away from, and possibilities

Tunes I rock out to:

Classic Rock and Country--though I'm not a huge music lover

Travel style:

Going for broke and figuring out the budget en route. You can always swing the financials.

I dislike baseball, but love Yogi Berra. Here's why: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."

Sports I do:

Lacrosse

Favorite artist(s):

Hemingway

Favorite books:

Lonesome Dove, All the Pretty Horses, The Sun Also Rises, The Monkey Wrench Gang, Welcome to Monkey House, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, The Shadow of the Wind, Monsoon, On Writing Well, Jack London Short Stories

Who I'd like to meet on my travels:

A one-time millionaire who gave away all his money, dollar by dollar

I want to make a difference by:

Ignoring constraints and encouraging others to follow.

Languages spoken, other than English:

Butchered Spanish

I felt the most immersed in a foreign culture when:

Waiting tables in a Tampa restaurant--I realized how diverse and culturally rich the United States is.

Why I travel:

It's better than anything else.

Ideal place to watch the sunrise:

In the Rocky Mountains, while on a trans-continental bicycle tour.

Ideal place to watch the sunset:

Adirondacks, New York

Before I die I'd like to:

Build a log cabin from scratch.

Let's collaborate:

I'm an aspiring writer who likes travel and adventure. I'm also ambitious and confident. The unfortunate combination leads me to believe that I write articles of Matador quality.
