About Matt
I’m a twenty-something vagabond who has been on the road regularly since 2005. I’m a native of Boston, Mass but lately, everywhere has been my home. After a trip to Thailand in 2005, I decided I to leave the rat race behind and explore the world. I came back to America, finished my Masters, quit my job, and, in July 2006, I set out to travel around the world. I’ve been traveling ever since.
Some things about me:
My favorite country is Thailand.
My favorite city is Amsterdam.
There’s not enough money in the world to get me to go back to Vietnam.
I like everything about Japanese culture and will eat sushi for breakfast.
I speak Spanish and Thai.
I like to pretend I know Dutch.
I fly about 10 times a year.
That picture is of me in Australia. That mound was made by termites.
I enjoy buying movies on the street in Asia.
My travel paradise is sitting on a beach until I turn a golden shade of black.
My laptop is my most expensive possession.
Everything I own fits in one bag.
I’d like to go into space.
I’m afraid of heights.
People who brag about travel are insecure and aggravate me. But did I tell you I’ve been to everywhere in Thailand? No? Take a seat…
I once got lost in a jungle.
I play too much poker.
Full Moon Raves are the world’s best party.
I love eating food from street stalls.
I wish I had a better ear for languages.
I don’t have a strong desire to go to China.
I do have a strong desire to spend ages in Bhutan.
I can’t remember how I enjoyed life before I stared to travel.
I like eating Kangaroo.
I once ate a maggot. Tasted like a french fry.
