About Me

I'm a normal guy who spends too much time in a cubicle. I think about it every day and have been trying to find a way out without ending up unemployed and in debt. Cubicles and offices suck the life out of people. I am eight years out of college and have that itch, wondering what sort of life college prepares us for. A routine filled with too much to do, too much stress, to many goals, and the never ending expectations to grow up and have a career and a normal life. I love the outdoors and the environment and travel and somehow wish I could find a way to incorporate those things into my "career" and the rest of my life.
