Nathaniel Allenby grew up on a family farm in the Willamette Valley 30 miles outside of Portland, Oregon. After graduating with honors from a prestigious Catholic high school, he entered a collegiate Politics program; which painfully showed him the world he did not want to enter. Since then he has been traveling around the world on a bicycle throughout 10 countries, 25 United States, and about 27,000 miles. He has blogged about his experiences and is a Couchsurfing Nomadic Ambassador. He would be more than happy to receive personal communication!
