I’m a 21 year old white male living in the United States preparing to leave my birthplace of Dayton OH to travel across the country to Montana, and then California with little more than 200 dollars to my name with a car full of friends to discover if its possible to escape from a modern consumerist culture like the one in which I was raised in favor of a low impact nomadic inspired lifestyle in which I plan to use the power of modern technology to become a permanent volunteer through services such as WWOOF and other work exchange opportunities. I plan on utilizing various forms of media to document this expedition start to finish including a video camera for youtube vlogs and the android smart phone I’m currently typing on, both of which will be powered indefinitely with renewable solar energy.

While ideally I plan on living without a car we will be planning on using my 2000 Ford Focus with 140,000 miles on it for the trip to San Francisco, upon arrival I plan on immediately scrapping, auctioning, selling it for what little I can get for food and other expenses.

We plan on leaving June 20th which is when this blog will officially be started but I plan on posting a few updates between now and then.
