Berea Tea and Coffee House (Berea, KY) - A college town that caters primarily to Appalachian students, it offers cultural counterpoint to prevailing assumptions of “mountain folk.” I find it ironic that I see more plaid shirts and beards in LA than here. The college is free to students interested in learning craft and skills based vocations. At graduation, the students agree to come back and work for 2 years at the college using their focused skills in crafts, agriculture, or services to the surrounding area.

After graduating from my MBA program in May, I turned to the surmountable next step of finding a job. As I turned through web sites, job postings, and networking events, I began to come to the conclusion that the current economic climate would not lead me into the dream job right away.
Rather than accept defeat, I looked for opportunities and revisited an old passion: to bike across the United States of America.
This trip is a documented account of my experiences, thoughts, and existentially romantic adventure to find a deeper sense of purpose in myself. I have history as an opera singer and plan to sing for people willing to let me stay in their front yard or homes along the way.
