Yea, you read that right. My entire life fits one checked bag, a duffle, and a backpack.

Our time in life is short and we’ll never know how much time we have. spend time doing things you love and never look back ✌️

This morning i am jumping on a plane to Tampa to join the Florida Bar Young Lawyer Board of Governors in our mission to end the stigma over mental illness in the legal profession through our StigmaFreeYLD campaign.

She’s incredibly caring, creative, and loves holiday traditions. for as long as i can remember she would open up our home to friends and family who didn’t have anywhere to go for the holidays. she makes everyone feel welcome, cooks way too much food, and then complains when we don’t eat it all 🙄

I don’t talk about work too much on here, but there’s something I’ve been working on that I’m incredibly proud of: my mission to help end the stigma over mental illness in the legal profession. ⠀

When I first had the idea of traveling the world, I decided to start with the US. there’s just so many cool places here I’ve never been, so it made sense to start in my own backyard and see what life was like in different places.

One of the hardest parts of a life on the road is that just when you make some new great friends, it’s time to pack up and move on. But I guess that just comes with the territory. The silver lining is that there are always new friends to be made, and social media helps to keep us connected.

One of my goals in life is to leave the world a better place than I found it. So I try to give back in every new place I go.

Today is my last day in Colorado. I will miss the mountains and all the great beer - but most of all - I’ll miss the friends i made along the way.

We all want different things out of life, and that’s cool. For me, my passions are exploring, traveling, reading, writing, helping other people, speaking and teaching, this niche in social media law, and spending time with my friends. The more time I spend doing those things, the happier I am. Plain and simple.

Next Step: Arizona! Where the views were breathtaking, the hiking was insane, and the food was incredibly spicy. After wolfing down every deep fried delicacy North Carolina had to offer, I needed to work off some calories… so hopped on a plane to hike the Sedona vortexes.

Many people were surprised to learn that Winston-Salem was my first stop on the journey. But for me, it was symbolic to go some place where the seasons change. In a way, North Carolina was a season of change for me - the end my old life in Miami, and the start of new life on the road. Life will never be the same.

I had wanted to document every step of this journey for you. I had planned to show you what it’s actually like to sell everything you own, make the necessary preparations, and set off on a grand adventure. I also wanted to document this part of the journey for myself, so i could look back on it years from now and reflect on what it was like. But sometimes life has other plans.

This is where my journey began.
