Welcome to Field Notes with the Backpack Professor- a collection of crazy stories, anecdotes, photos, and videos from my adventures around the world. If there is a situation to be caught in when exploring those far-flung places off the beaten track, chances are, I’ve been in it. This website is designed to share those experiences with you- whether you are an aspiring backpacker led here thru BackpackU, an avid traveler looking for insight about your next destination, or an ‘armchair nomad’ who simply enjoys a good travel tome now and again, Field Notes has something for you. Grab a coffee, find a comfy chair, kick back, and relax… The Professor is IN.
