The beach where I lived for almost two months on the island of Kauai, Hawaii.

2012 was a very strange, fun and challenging year for me. I don’t know if the Mayans had anything to do with it, probably not. In the fall of 2012 I started writing a book about the events that had transpired earlier in the year. I got deep into writing it for a while and then got distracted with other things: traveling, making YouTube videos and life in general. I worked on it very sporadically over the past nine years. But it’s a book I really hope to finish someday, because there’s much more to the story in addition to the nine chapters that I’ve written so far.

I decided to publish what I’ve written since who knows how much longer it will take before I finish it, not to mention going through the publishing process if I’m lucky enough to find a publisher. In the meantime I thought I’d put it out there for people to take a look at this very strange, winding, raw and real account of my life as a vagabond.

This is a 100% true story with no exaggerations, just the way things happened. There’s lots more to tell from the year that was 2012. Hopefully I will finally find the time at some point in the near future to finish this book. I guess we’ll see. In the meantime I hope you enjoy what I’ve written so far. And if you enjoy my writing, feel free to buy one of my seven books that are currently
