Hello & welcome! I'm Daniel, aka "Adventureman Dan." I've been living on the edge, from one adventure to another for the past ten years. Starting in Central California with my first GoPro, through to SoCal, Baja, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Alaska, and throughout the whole USA. Then for the seven years on a 38' sailboat "Adventureborne." But now I'm starting a new chapter, which has opened my life up to unlimited possibilities of where I can go and what I can do!
