Exploring the country; striving to grow in Faith, Hope, and Charity

Hey there! Thank you for checking out my website! My name's Matthew and I'm based in central Iowa. I love the snow in the winter and the lake in the summer! When I'm not driving somewhere, I love a good bike ride! I also love cycling, kayaking, hiking, rollerblading and just being outside in general. As for #vanlife, Iowa's a great launching point off of I-35 and I-80 for road trips and visiting friends and family. Being out on the road, whether for an overnighter or a weeklong trip, opens you up to new experiences and people you wouldn't have encountered had you stayed at home watching inspirational videos and thinking about the kind of person you'd like to be someday. When you're away from home and comfort, you're vulnerable and a little scared. It forces you to trust deeper, knowing that God will be with you no matter what, on this trip and through this life. I'm excited to grow this website and am glad to have you along for the ride! Thank you for checking it out, every visit is appreciated!
