My name is James Hammond, and I have been working and travelling since 2013. I love seeking new adventures, meeting people from different cultures, and feeding my wanderlust. In 2013, I decided to embark on a worldwide two-year trip with an Australian work visa chucked in the middle of it, and I haven’t stopped!
Currently, I am based in Vancouver, Canada. There are many projects that I am currently involved in, such as my podcast, writing my new travel book, developing my YouTube channel, and planning more adventures.
Some facts for you below.
I love baked beans.
I am a Jimi Hendrix nerd.
I have travelled to 70+ countries.
I am a trendy coffee lover.
I love meeting like-minded people.
