“Forget Obligation, Go Global” is Troy Floyd’s mantra.
FOGG Odyssey is the name of Troy’s travel blog about a guy who decided work wasn’t worth the effort anymore.
Troy Floyd chillaxin' in Malaysia
“I was working twelve hour days, seven days a week for four months straight in the my last job, trying to climb the ladder,” he says.
“I was making great money and I got to travel every four months to anywhere in the world for two weeks but after I got the travel bug I knew two weeks wasn’t enough.”
So, the natural conclusion was to quit his job and move to Thailand to live the humble backpacker life.
He stayed there for three months, moved on to South America and is now currently living in Ecuador at the moment.
“My plan is never to work again and travel as long as I can. I have been to 25+ plus countries and try to post something on my travel blog 3-4x per week.”
Troy has some amazing photography on his blog.
One of the coolest features is the Faces of Earth series, where he interviews people he meets while traveling.
He’s also just recently started doing a weekly panoramic photo from his travels.
So check it out, you won’t be disappointed.
