I’m prickly.

Heading out west is the best. If you ever want to get lost in a foreign place, go to the desert in California. Or even in the coastal towns on the Pacific. As a kid, I always wanted to go out west, so my Dad took myself and my older brother out to California. Such an awesome road trip where I got crushed beneath the giant crashing waves.

A few years later, we all road-tripped as a family and hit up California again. We got to see the stars on the walk of fame in Hollywood and put our hands in the imprints of the famous people who came before us. It was all so fun and memorable.

Last year, when my wife was 6 months pregnant, we went to San Diego and then checked out the classic Hollywood feel of Palm Springs. We did a few day hikes in Joshua Tree Park, and it felt great to wander around and get lost.

Time and time again, something keeps bringing me back to the West Coast. There is so much to do out there and explore. I don’t think I will ever move out there, but to be able to get lost in such a different world is amazing. I have a fond appreciation to the chill vibes out there and the numerous National parks to keep me occupied. If you haven’t gone out west yet, definitely give it a try. If you want a travel partner, let me know. I want to go back again soon.

P.S. Wander and get lost anywhere you go. It is fun to just be someplace without an agenda.
