While I do hope to establish relationships with sponsors, I promised myself when I was 10 years old that I would never endorse something that I didn’t believe in. That’s why every review on this website is honest, and why every sponsor I partner with knows that my integrity is not what I am selling. The last thing I want to do is lead you down the wrong path.

Please be patient with me as I continue to to flesh out this site.  I had a lot to do in the four weeks between quitting my job and hitting the road.   There is, yet, a lot more to be done.  

I’m proud of where SO is at the moment, but it’s not even close to it’s full potential.  As I go, I plan to update this site with travel tips, product reviews, and much more.
