Follow a modern nomad around the world. Having an innate thirst for adventure, Martin Patrick Schroeder has been travelling the world since 2007, covering most distances on bicycle. Crossing the Alps and Andes, the Sahara and Atacama deserts, the Amazon and Borneo jungles are just tiny parts of this trip of a lifetime.

A big misconception is that you need a lot of money or have a high paying job to travel and see the world. I have neither, yet I make traveling a priority.

I'm Crystal. I've visited twenty-three countries, every nation of the UK, and thirty US states. This blog also details my adventures during the 2014-2015 academic year studying abroad in London and travelling throughout eighteen European countries. I currently work as a figure skating coach in Reykjavik, Iceland.
