Hi,
My story is a bit unconventional –but is there a conventional story out there anyway?
We all come to the table with a different perspective on life.
A different starting point.
A different path.
A different way to interpret events.
I started in the wedding photography business when I was 16 years old (I'm 27 now), charging up to $2k per wedding. I left the wedding industry to try something different after a few years. It was a dream of mine to work in the oil and gas and mining industry, for whatever reason.
I made well for myself. Worked in the gold mine of northern Canada. Worked in the pipeline industry of Alberta. Bought every dream cars that I dreamt of. Went to every places on the planet that I wanted to visit. Drove 200 000 miles of roads in the Americas (Alaska to Argentina) in a convertible just to see the world and wrote a book about what's right and what's wrong in this world. Took the time to read 500 non-fiction books in 1000 days. I mean, I went hard.
I just "retired" two weeks ago. Retirement is when your second bucketlist is achieved haha. Made it to the top, now I want to start a new thing.
So I drove across the country with my car and belongings last week.
I'm at my parent's place right now, looking at my options. I can do anything I want; go anywhere, do anything.
Question: What do you do when you've done everything on your bucketlist?
Question: What do you do when you have nothing left to do?
Question: Where do you go when you have nowhere else to go?
Well, I figured for now that the show must go on, so I'm shipping my Jeep from South America to Spain this winter and will drive from Ibiza to Mongolia with it.
Does anyone want to come? I went so hard that I don't fit in normal society. I lived the equivalent of 3 lifetimes in the last 10 years. Most of my friends are in their late 30s or even 40s...no one has a spare 6 months of their life to road trip half of the world in a convertible Wrangler. People love the idea, just not enough to drop everything haha.
So I quit my high paying job as a mine supervisor to chase something new. I have made money: now what? Build the most beautiful world, for sure. How? Where to start?
I'm calling on the architect of the better world here.
If you are interested in changing the world, seeing the world, travelling the world, PM me. I got a few ideas in mind.
One of them includes driving.
Cheers,
