The Autodidactic Human

Life-long Student of the Present Moment

My name is Josh. Born into a family where discipline met education—raised by a US Marine and a dedicated school teacher—I was instilled with a deep respect for both structure and the endless pursuit of knowledge. My journey has taken me across the globe, allowing me to witness firsthand the diverse ways in which people live, connect, and find meaning on different sides of our planet.

Through my travels and encounters, I’ve come to realize that experience is our most invaluable asset. It’s through shared experiences that we learn, grow, and ultimately understand the beauty that life has to offer. Every interaction, every new culture, and every lesson learned has shaped my perspective and enriched my life.

My hope is that the stories and insights I’ve gathered along the way can inspire others to see the world through a lens of curiosity and appreciation. If my journey helps even one person discover the beauty in life’s simple moments, then I’ve succeeded in my mission.
