CURRENT MISSION
I want to make the world a better place, have an adventure, simplify my life, and get closer to nature through travels and experiences. I am currently in Arizona hoping to do a few weeks on the ArizonaTrail.

ABOUT ME
Hi! My name is Brent! I left my job in finance and hometown of Birmingham, MI about 8 years ago because I wanted to experience the world while I was young and stop letting life pass me by. I have been working different jobs and traveling ever since. I have enjoyed having my life fit in a backpack and the freedom it provides.
