Subject: Cross Country Trip

Week 4: It snows almost every day. Pittsburgh feels like a winter wonderland and people seem to treat it as such. I explored the Botanical Gardens. Since arriving, I cut out all meat, all sugar, doubled my protein, and started running twice a week. Result – I now have abs.

Week 5: Hardly any pics but I got a tour of the Carnegie Art Museum from a new faceless friend. I also wrapped up month 1 of my travel expenses. The goal is to not only be self sustaining, but still save on my cross country trip. This month I was $700 under budget. Contributing factors were staying in a hella cheap Airbnb, eating almost exclusively rice, beans, and tofu, and the fact that the entire city is shut down so there’s nothing to spend money on anyway. I’ll be tracking this every month as I go.

Week 6: Crazy to think I’m already halfway through my stay in Pittsburgh. I can hardly remember the last time the ground wasn’t covered in snow. All I have to show you… Is that my beer just exploded 🙁 Relaxation 2/10.

Week 7: I explored three new parks. Attended trivia night. Sat down to eat at my very first restaurant since arriving and drank my first aperol spritz. I met my first nomad who made me coffee in a renovated Sprinter van. I ran two miles through ice and mud after drinking a latte and quickly learned to never run two miles through ice and mud after drinking a latte.
