Well I'm fairly new to the internet and the whole idea of blogging and social networking is a bit of a mystery, so I decided to throw myself in and learn by doing. This blog is to share some ideas and knowledge I've gathered together in the old gray matter with a hope of it having a positive impact on the Earth.

A few years ago I had a professional job working way too many hours per week in an endless cycle of wants and consumption. Fueled by the corporate media I was trying to find happiness on page 47 of the latest Ikea catalog. Needless to say it wasn't there, facing a mid life crisis at 27 I gave away just about everything I owned and set of to find out what matters in the world.

Traveling opened my eyes to the world and fundamentally changed me as a person, I found out some amazing truths some of which have been buried by the modern world. I've seen the beauty in humanity and nature, from the tropical jungles in South America to the Rockies in Canada. It really is a wonderful world out there if only we choose to go out experience it.
