2011 was a heckuva year. I did some things I never thought I’d be able to do and started down a road I never really planned on going. It was a little crazy to look back on the last 12 months and see what happened. But the past is the past and the only thing that matters is now. What [...]
We’re a few days out from the New Year. While there’s nothing really special about the new year, but it’s a nice arbitrary way to look back on what you’ve done the past 365 days.

In Bhutan. Yea, like that. So [...]
I must be completely out of my mind. The past 3 weeks I’ve been busy blowing up my previous limitations of what I thought this blog could be and remaking it into an adventure bigger than myself. I’m busy expanding things, making them bigger, making space for others to join in, but that means I’ve got a ton of things on [...]
