Reddit: I drove my Jeep right around Africa. AMA
- grecy 7y agoI post here fairly often, and people have been interested in what I'm doing with my life. I was a Software Engineer. I sold all my stuff, and went out and lived my dream.
- souprock 7y agoIn some ways, like Johnny Long, who you drove past: https://www.hackersforcharity.org/johnny/about-johnny/ https://www.hackersforcharity.org/johnny/about-johnny/
- kylehotchkiss 7y agoI don’t have a reddit but while I can ask you... what do you think of the 4Runner? Could it do the same journey?
- grecy 7y agoThey're great, and yes, I think it absolutely could. It's more about the determination of the driver than the vehicle, IMO
- Terretta 7y agoLived in Cameroon for a decade, wrote my first software there. Glad you liked Kribi!
- ikeyany 7y ago> Personally, I'm very tempted to live in Zimbabwe. Although the government is in utter shambles - and has been for decades - the people there are phenominal. They have every right in the world to complain about basically everything, and yet I never heard a single person complain in my 6 weeks all over the country. A country whose government is in shambles but whose people learned over time not to care, sounds depressing. That mixed with your definition of what it means to truly live: > living in the now, and not giving up enjoyment today for some chance at a possibly happy future. Those bits together paint kind of a dystopian picture, IMO.
