Hello my name is Al those of you who know me from before this trip will now me as Alex. I’m traveling across the United States by motorcycle with a simple goal: to connect with people, help where I can, and collect the stories and wisdom of those I meet along the way. I am primarily traveling by Motorcycle, only using dispersed camping to reduce impact on the natural environment, limit expenses and to be more open to the world as a whole.

This is about more than just traveling to me. It's driven by a goal of finding human connection, learning from others, and documenting the experiences, perspectives, and lessons that make them who they are. My hope is to eventually turn these stories into a full book sharing the wisdom I find on my journey.

I created this GoFundMe not out of expectation, but as a way for people who believe in this mission to help keep it going. Donations will go directly towards basic expenses to prolong the journey and hopefully do more good along the way.

If you appreciate or feel inspired by the work that I am doing and aim to do, consider donating, or sharing this page and I will be sure to put the funds to the best use that I can. Any funds not used at the completion of the journey will be donated to a few different charities. Thanks!
