From the Fall 2016 issue

Ever wonder what it's like to trade your daily routine for a life of endless waves and open road? For sixteen months, my wife, our dog, and I lived that dream, driving our 2001 Toyota Tacoma from Baja, Mexico, all the way down the Pacific coast to Chile, and then across to Uruguay. This wasn't just a road trip; it was a lesson in the freedom of a nomadic lifestyle, proving that the real adventure lies in the journey itself, not just the destination.
