traveling, tramping, talking, and taking every chance I get
Welcome to episode 2 of don't worry, i'm finite, the podcast! Meagan Eishen and I met while working on the Westerdam cruise ship, much like my first guest.

Welcome to the first episode of don't worry, i'm finite! I'm excited that my first guest is a good friend, Lauren Buckle, whom I met while working as a photography instructor aboard the Westerdam, a Holland America Line cruise ship.

When I go on road trips I start off beaming with excitement for all the things I've planned to do. All those big plans will come, but there's a lot of open road between here and there. The excitement can quickly fade if you're not keeping your mind occupied while you're on a long stretch... Continue Reading →
