I've recently decided to quit my job, leave my Canadian home, purchase a ticket overseas and not come back until I feel like it. I'm 28 years old, an avid (if casual) cyclist, freelance writer, spiritual seeker, habitual dabbler, aspiring scholar and occasional pilgrim. In the time since I've been travelling I've become addicted to hitchhiking, camped in snowstorms, been offered mysterious mushrooms from Ukrainian forest-men, seen Icelandic auroras, worked on the Croatian coast, dumpster-dived, skinny-dipped, laughed, screamed, danced, thrown up and continued to learn how little I know. AND I'm learning Russian - you'll know if I'm successful if I've translated all this crap by now.
