A life determined worth living.

i enjoy pushing through a challenge and i find solace in enduring through pain. It is because of this i enjoy the outdoors so much. There are so many obstacles to get over, so much fear to overcome, and pain to learn how to enjoy suffering through when going out into the vastness of the outdoors. The balance between danger and beauty within nature is something i deeply desire to capture, witness, and understand; this is why i pursue a career that keeps me outside.

From working in the culinary industry; working in rehabs with the homeless struggling with addiction to doing security, i have decided to branch out from the nine to five lifestyle and do something that does not keep me stationary. Although working outdoors is a passion of mine, so is helping people. i have seen and witnessed a lot of pain, and i know it reaches far and wide. With creating a more nomadic lifestyle, i intend to better find those suffering abroad and help them to the best of my abilities.

Oh, also my name is ryan holland, and being inspired by E.E. Cummings, i don’t care to capitalize when in reference to myself.
