I grew up in New York City Metropolitan area and have spent most of life exploring the Northeast extensively. Ever since I was young I always had a passion for traveling and venturing out into the wild. There was always a strong curiosity in me always wondering what’s at the next mountain ridge or where the random dirt road I found leads down. In my free time though I love exploring my home New York City and spending time in my favorite bar in the East Village. Summit Bar!
My good friend and I started this site after having a few drinks at Point Pleasant, NJ at “old man tiki” and deciding that we needed to share our adventures and that we would just jump right into it. I will forever always remember that day because every free moment we had afterwards we went on adventures at an aggressive pace. We had fun rules like if one of us thinks of an idea no matter how bad it is we will do it. That spirit even years later still rings true for us both and has led us on many adventures!
I hope our work on this site inspires you all to go out and do something! Anything! Just go venture out and explore!

I like to think the moment I truly became a man was on my last day of college, when I walked out of my internship and realized that the rest of my life was now solely in my hands and that I was free to pursue any of my wildest dreams. Having just become a certified teacher in New Jersey, I was convinced that I knew exactly how my life was going to work out. Suddenly, I was struck with the humbling responsibility of choosing to follow the path I’d been on the last four years or saying “fuck it” and doing something totally different and unexpected. Once I understood that I had the freedom to do anything I wanted, I realized that I was a man in charge of his own destiny.
A life-long resident of Northern New Jersey, I’m a day-time civil servant who keeps his sanity by writing all of the awesome content on this site. On weekends, I’m either lost in the woods, out on the road looking for adventure, or halfway through a bacon cheeseburger and my 9th beer. Though I’ve been a guy all my life, I only recently became a man when my lustrous mane fully bloomed and I embarked on this journey to find higher levels of living and manlier ways of being. I’m not an expert on any of this. I’m just a dude with a beard and a passion for beef who does epic shit and isn’t afraid to be a man.
