Hey, I’m Ethan.
Welcome to my online portal to the possible.
In 2016, I launched this blog to offer perspective from a close brush with death and a means of experiencing the world through super-cheap, far-flung, clarity-inducing adventures of travel.
As I wondered, wandered, and wrote, the blog and I evolved. Beyond inciting adventure, a broader hope to shake people and offer a path to further realms of possibility and better ways of being developed.
Today, I write about all things profound, useful, and moving to me — from vipassana meditation to the art of the road trip to when to say yes or no to the lenses through which we view reality to the concept of surfing time.

Back in March in the midst of a near-magic trip cruising around on scooters, watching sunsets, and exploring Mexico’s Pacific Coast, I sat up on the roof of this Mexican mansion one night to connect with my friend Peter for a podcast-style interview on his wellness cross-training platform Empowermend.
