Another introduction from a midwesterner here. My name is Gideon the Storyteller. Born and raised in Michigan and dipped out to the west coast to start travelling when I was 19, after standing up and suddenly walking out of a college class.
Rode my bicycle cross crountry, walked, hitchhiked, and later rubbertramped for years in my trusty Grand Caravan. Stayed at lots of communes, was at Occupy in nyc, tons of adventures, just generally rambled about like a G.
Finally settled down five years later in 2015 when I came up from work in the triangle and got a house on 8 mile in Detroit. Did my thing there for years (also a part of fireweed universe city if any of y'all have been) until my house burned in 2018, Sept 11 to be precise (no, this one wasn't a false flag.) Devastated. Worked doing consulting and then went off to Columbia for the first half of 2019. Good time.
Finally achieved my longterm goal and got a big farm in SE MI I bought in june 2020 aaaand now I'm bored lol. Currently doing some ch ro work for a fender bender then once better thinking of getting an rv or truck camper and hitting the road again, at least for the rest of winter.
Anyways, that's my story, if anyone has any cool destinations they're at they'd like to recommend, or wants some company, drop an invite. Alternately, if you need a place to stay in Michigan reach out, I'm considering maybe a ecovillage/wwoof setup since I finally have the 20 acres I've always wanted.
Oh and I almost forgot! I make badass travelling music. Check out my stuff on gideonthestoryteller.bandcamp.com or I'm also on Spotify.
Peace out yo if you're good peoples hope to see around
