I'm leaving on my road trip across the US in 3 days. To be honest, I'm not really that nervous. This feels like something I have to do. There's no other option. It's the natural and obvious thing to for me to do at this point in my life. No wife, no kids, no steady job that is going to take me to great places. I've saved up and ambition as at an all time high so NOW I'm doing it!
There are many reasons for this trip but I think the main reason is simply this: I want to. I want to discover. I want to get in crappy situations and figure my way out of them. I want to discover who I am at the core of myself. Will I crack and crumble or will I stand strong?
Of course I will be releasing videos during the trip. I will try to release at least a couple videos a week and at the same time I will be shooting episodes for AnimalBytesTV. Now, I'll make some money off of that but it's primarily for education and publicity. I want to get people interested in more than the animals because while they're awesome, there is so much more to nature and it all needs to be conserved.
My planned route is basically a big loop. I'll go from Florida to Tennessee, to South Dakota, to Oregon, to Arizona, then loop back around to Florida. Also, this entire plan could change in a second so we will see what happens and where I go.
I could make this an insanely long blog post with lots of details and stating different goals but I'll end it with stating the greatest of the goals and that is to find true love and sustainability :)
