I'm Blake and I find myself on the road a lot! I usually sleep in my truck when I'm on the move but when I'm vehicleless I love staying with fellow travelers and making genuine connections. My passions/obsessions are long distance running, long distance hiking, wood working, sewing, climbing, nature lover, spending quality time with quality friends (especially around a campfire), and reading. Self described as chill and a listener.
