Joined Atlas Obscura in 2016

Lover of travel, oddities, history and photography. My wife and I would rather saddle up and go explore the nooks and crannies of the world more than any other activity...aside from winning the lottery...but that isn't really up to us. Every day presents an opportunity to travel, you just have to take advantage of it.
