Greetings!

Welcome to my new blog! A Vagabond's Rambles will be a record and memory of my summer travels of 2014. I will post stories, self portraits, and pictures of beautiful places in nature. Here's what you are in for if you follow the blog.

Right now I am a vagabond, one day I will be content to settle down into a tiny cottage, built from my blood and sweat, in the hills and valleys of a magical place unknown to me at this time. But for now I will wander and explore the beauty of my country and those around it with the goal of finding that final destination. I traveled Europe for four months last year and this year I am traveling the states. I loved Europe and will surely go back but for now I don't want to leave my tiny soul mate, Nixi.
Nixi and I will embark on July 8th heading Northwest from Charlottesville, VA. I will post once a week with a self portrait and description of the great adventures that we had during those seven days. Most of the trip will consist of climbing and exploring off the beaten path. Along the way I will be working on my skills as a photographer and taking self portraits and photos of nature. Our basic path is going to look like this:
