Joined Atlas Obscura in 2017

Just some guy who likes to travel, wander, and look for odd experiences. While I'm currently located in Cave Creek AZ... I get out of the states at least twice a year for work turned into vacations. It's amazing how many places I can check off, based on "latest places" that I've already been to
