I was saving up money to quit my job and travel the world. But then instead, the company laid me off. Along with the pink slip they gave me a massive severance check. No job, and the money to travel; it worked out perfectly for me. I bought a one way ticket to Bali.

I'd imagined coming back and finding another job. But, while lying on the beaches of Indonesia, I failed to find good reasons to come back and sit behind a desk. And so, I dumped my career and my life hasn't been the same since.

Now I'm traveling the world with a laptop, trying to start up a new career as a freelance travel writer and photojournalist.

I've just started on an epic overland journey that should take me from Tanzania, to Cairo, to Iran, to Moscow, to Ulaanbataar, to Beijing, to Vietnam.

A map of the route, journal entries and photos are all on the website:
