Life is but an open road for Cam.
Driving through open farm land, ranches, villages, towns, and cities.
In the rear-view mirror is a beautiful sunset of lovely faces, places, friends and comrades made.

Life is but an open road for Cam.
Driving through open farm land, ranches, villages, towns, and cities.
In the rear-view mirror is a beautiful sunset of lovely faces, places, friends and comrades made.
Stories shared, different languages spoken.
From Greece to Portugal, South East Asia, to the South Western United states.
Cam’s always found people, places and things along every turn, enjoying a world of exploration.
For five years Cam was a yogi in Thailand, next adventure a barista in a poetry cafe in San Francisco.
Exploring and capturing photos of parks and steeps hills lined with colorful painted lady Victorian homes and posting them on social.
Two years and it was time to switch adventures
Up ahead Cam is heading towards a mountain of new adventures.
Driving through high deserts of rural Southern California, maybe heald to San Diago, or even down to Mexico.
Where Cam stops is a roll of the dice
A chance Cam is always willing to take.
Cam was in New York in the mid 2000’s, back when it was relatively cheep, working at a Best Buy and that’s where Cam met Nicky,
And they flew to England, where they decided to stay and both gotten jobs at a 17th Century Book store.
They broke up when Nicky met Juilian , Cam left London surprisingly not heartbroken, it was just on -ord and outward to Cam’s next adventure.
Cam still keeps in touch with Nicky and even Julian, texting once in a while.
A file of contacts from friends made around the world. Social likes and well wishing comments from the world are waiting for Cam for when it’s time to make a pitstop and pull out the phone, for a day or two or maybe a year or two.
