He shares some perspective of life on the road in the early days with Gatsby’s American Dream and Portugal.

    Ep. 01: Pilot

    Setting the vision, diving in, getting our feet wet, testing ideas…it’s all gotta start somewhere, and for us, that’s in a ‘84 Vanagon under a tarp at Grandma’s house. Launching from this episode, we aim to build meaningful relationships with the people that are right in front of us through each conversation, as we practice asking questions and celebrating the wonder of the ordinary (or maybe not so ordinary). Maybe we’ll talk about coffee, hospitality, and service — or maybe not. Join in weekly for a deep dive with us as we explore. Have a question?
