ABOUT ME

I love the way the world looks from my bicycle. It's my favorite way to travel.

I'm after authenticity, inspiration, and sometimes a place to sleep.

I grew up in Arkansas and studied philosophy there.
I spent six summers working at a little cafe in Saint Mary, Montana which stole my heart. It is the place I feel most at home.

I now live in Minneapolis, MN with my girlfriend, Kelsey.
(Here's Kelsey's CouchSurfing Page: http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/kelsey.fogt/)

I like bikes better than cars.
I like to shop at a market where I know who made or grew things and why.
I like that simple things can be revolutionary.
