About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My name is Dave, 28 yrs old and I had 1 year off of work. My mission was to ride a motorcycle to every state in America and every province in Canada.

I couchsurfed the entire trip - not for financial reasons, but to meet people along the way to make my journey more memorable!

PHILOSOPHY

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." Mark Twain (supposedly, but this is argued both ways by true Twain followers..)
