Hello, my name is Wilfred. I am a traveler and artist. On January 23, of this year, I committed to traveling the entirety of the United States in 6 months. I am currently four months into my journey; I have met and had so many life-changing experiences that have humbled me. The kindness of strangers and kinship I have experienced throughout my journey has expanded my beliefs in what is possible of myself and humanity. Generally, I am quite a quiet person, however over the course of this journey I have witnessed myself coming out of my shell. I feel that traveling forces you to take on narratives outside of the storyline you are comfortable with.

In my free time, I like to sight-see. I enjoy getting lost in big cities, hiking large mountains, and overcoming challenging circumstances.

This year I have seen and experienced, Texas, Louisiana, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Idaho, California, Colorado, New York, New Jersey, Maryland. I am hoping to double this list my the end of the month. It has been such a rewarding experience seeing the United States and meeting new people from across the world.
