I know I make it seem as though my travels have already begun, and in reality, it feels like they have.
For the past year I have been living in a small studio in Wailuku, Hawaii. Last week, I began the laborious process of throwing away/selling EVERYTHING I OWNED that didn’t make the “backpack cut” so that I could clean, and walk out the door. I finally have.
Here’s the start of what will end up being many podcasts about the process of “going on the road” and reports from the places themselves. You don’t have to listen to it, as most of the content will be posted in text form as well, but if you’d like to hear sounds from the more interesting-sounding places and get a more personal feel for how things are going, take a listen.
PS: HERE’S WHAT’S LEFT OF MY PLACE AFTER TWO DAYS OF CLEANING:


Hey Christian!
Nice podcast
I like a little media in between text posts, it kind of loosens everything up. Not so “static”. And hearing the room echoing was a nice impression of where you were, something which is more difficult to capture in writing.
So I encourage you to do more media stuff
I didn’t know you were also a PHP developer. I was thinking you did more design stuff. PHP is exactly what I do atm
I’m thinking about one night stands with the beautiful Ruby, though.
Hey good luck with your new life
I did the same thing 8 years ago and never looked back. I didn’t sell my stuff, I put in in storage and now have it all in a small loft back in the states
I traveled all around the world – lived in the Middle East and now I live in Indonesia
This will be the best thing that you have ever done
