About me

Hey, I’m Nick! I started Adventurous Pursuits after getting hooked on travel and adventure in my 20s. A lot has changed since then, but the mission hasn’t: do interesting things, collect great stories, and live vicariously through yourself!

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Mark Twain
