About this blog

It's aimless wandering on a global scale!

Follow the adventures of my partner and I, two guys from Colorado, USA, recently freed from the unending pursuit of upward mobility, corporate life, and the "American Dream"! We'll begin in Southeast Asia, travel the Asian continent, and see where the road takes us from there...
