Description

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you walked out the front door and disappeared from your current life? Just grab the keys and go—no destination, no objective. Just up and left, never looking back.

What would you do with your new life? Could you make it with the clothes on your back and a couple thousand dollars in your savings account? Move across the country to a small town where nobody knows you and start over? Would you be willing to risk everything, knowing you had only three months’ savings?

Come on a ride with me to Alaska. I did this and more on a bicycle. Join me as we follow my map and embark on this adventure together.

Featured Reviews

As someone who has traveled to 55+ countries the first line in the description had me hooked, and even though I don’t usually post about non fiction travel books (on this account) they are truly one of my favorite reads! My adventurous soul can’t get enough of this and I absolutely love these books; Alaska also holds a special place in my heart.

“Have you ever wondered what would happen if you walked out the front door and disappeared from your current life? Just grab the keys and go - no destination, no objective. Just up and left, never looking back.”

Ultimately an incredible journey and also little bit of a guide; he has created a book that lets you dream, and learn. This memoir offers a dreamy, yet realistic insight into the Alaskan wilderness. Incredibly inspiring to read, and I hope it encourages a fellow reader to learn some survival tips to explore more of the outside world. Overall, such a great read and I’d recommend this book to anyone looking for a bit more insight on getting out of your comfort zone, or inspiration to follow your dreams.

** Im not sure where I can find a physical copy, but I can't wait to add one to my shelf one day
