You want an adventure buddy. I'm ready.

i'll be your friend .

Six spots a year — one adventure, one new person, every time. Your bucket list, your dime, my company. If we're lucky, a friendship that outlasts the trip.

all 6 spots open — just launched

6 spots. 6 strangers. 6 adventures. every year.

est. somewhere with no cell service

the pitch, in three

A simple deal, done right.

No app. No subscription. No gimmick. Just a handshake, a plane ticket, and a promise to show up as good company for whatever you've been dreaming about.

01

The Premise

You've got something on your list you've never done. You don't want to do it alone. I'd like to come with.

02

The Process

Three video calls, a background check, and a plan we build together. No surprises, no weirdness.

03

The Promise

I show up exactly as I am — curious, present, game for the thing. You cover the trip. We come back with stories.

how this works

Four steps between here and a trip you'll never forget.

  1. 01

    Pitch your adventure

    Tell me what's on your bucket list. The weirder the better. I want to hear the dream you've been quietly carrying for years.

  2. 02

    We meet, three times

    Three video calls before we book a thing. We get to know each other — no pressure, no sales pitch. Either of us can wave off.

  3. 03

    You cover the trip

    Flights, stays, meals, the whole ride — both ways, for me. It's the deal: your bucket list on your terms, my company as the gift.

  4. 04

    We go, and we live it

    Six spots open each year — one per person, one adventure each. We go do the thing and come home with a story. Hopefully, friends for life.

    let's go.

that's me.

the short version

I'm Jon . I like long drives and trying new things.

I grew up poor in a place I never felt I belonged, then I left. Since then I've been to 21 countries, 36 states… and got fluent in getting lost. I've learned the hard way that the best views are shared ones, which is why I'm launching this experiment.

I'm a hobby photographer, my jokes are solid, I love talking about all the deep and crazy things in life, and I've been told I'm a wild person to be around.

If we go somewhere together, hopefully we come home friends.
