#Adventures in Adventuring: Bye Bye LA

Editor's note: Dear mom and dad ... do not read this. At all, and or what so ever. Love you! Kthxbye

I need to travel. It is in my soul ... it is in my heart ... I literally thrive off of adventure. So last night, I was sitting with my buddy Lindsay talking about doing some work together with the site ... etc. Dudes, this chick is fucking bat shit crazy. And I know, it takes one to know one ... but this is the CRAZIEST, most HARDCORE girl that I know. Like seriously.

She told me she had just gotten back from this assignment in Northern California at an undisclosed location, and said it was one of the trippiest things she had ever experienced. I asked when she was going next, and that I wanted to come along. Lindsay being Lindsay said, let's go tomorrow! PERRRRFFEEEECCCTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!

So, now I am packing to head up to a city in Northern California for a few days. I can't say anything about it, and I may not even have internet or cell reception of any kind. YUPPPPPPP!!! You heard that right ... I am not 100% I will even have cell reception so I may or may not be off the grid for about 48 hours. It's cool, cause fortunately I'ze gotz me some peeps to help with the site ... but I need to have this adventure.

This will be HANDS DOWN one of the weirdest/ craziest things I have ever done ... and this just has to happen.

I'm not entirely sure how legal this is (yayyy for having fancy pants lawyers!), and I'm not entirely sure I am going to be able to tell you all exactly what we will be doing. I can say, I am going to get my hands super dirty ... and this has absolutely 100% NOTHING to do with social media or tech in any capacity. It is just an adventure that I had heard of people doing, but wanted to witness and experience myself.

No matter what I KNOOOWWWW it is going to lead to an epic post after hahaha, so that's all that matters.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG you guys!!!! I leave in an hour - and I can't WAIIIIIIITTTTTT!!!! Gotta pack!

Peace love and lollipops!

#FocusRally: Bios submitted! 

Word to the bird jellyfish!! We're oot scootin and boogin with the #FocusRally!!! We of course being myself, and @lindsayMC aka this chick ...

 

 

UH HUHHHHH!!!

Here are the bios we had to submit to production this weekend:

Jen:  Single, 1 Dog

Jen lives life stupid enough to do a lot of weird and crazy things, but smart enough to never get caught.  She created, coded, marketed and promoted the nerd revolution, “Talk Nerdy To Me Lover” which in less than a year has a staff of 34, and whole lotta heart. She is most likely found behind the glow of her macbook pro, and loving every minute of it.

 

Lindsay: Single

“Why not?” is Lindsay’s mentality and splitting her time between the beach and the mountains as a surf and snowboard instructor in Southern California, Lindsay is always on the move. She has hitchhiked and backpacked through Europe, Australia and West Africa on her own and loves meeting new people and exploring new things. Lindsay uses social networking as a way to keep in touch with friends from the east coast, west coast, in the beach and on the mountains, as well as to meet new people along the way. Lindsay hopes to prove that ‘if a guy can do it, a girl can do it and make it look good!’ as well as to prove that once and for all, she is not as bad of a driver as her parents think she is.

 

The Team:

After being introduced by a mutual friend who thought they could learn from each other being two girls in male dominated environments, Jen and Lindsay really hit it off. As different as they seem, Jen and Lindsay became quick friends and discovered they had much more in common than they had ever would have thought. Where Lindsay lacks in social networking, Jen picks up the slack as the creator of Talk Nerdy to Me, Lover and where Jen lacks in typical sport and travel know-how, Lindsay picks up with her backpacking experience and ‘Go big or go home’ mentality. These girls are ready to take on any team on the road!

 

HAHA!! It's so funny now, I am completely incapable of writing a long anything. For reals - all my answers on the sheet they gave me were literally one word. Even writing that bio was like pulling teeth. Oy vey. Damn you brevity inducing twitter!! AARRGHHHH!!!

Anywhooooo ... I think we find out what the story is in another 2 weeks. So, we've still got some time. But either way ... check this out, looks super super superrrr effin cool!
