Olson says: "I can never stop thinking about the next trip. My wife and I are expecting a new Baby this spring and I know that I may be homeward bound for awhile. By getting involved in this community I feel maybe I can meet some fellow travelers and live vicariously through them during my baby sabbatical. I'm very knowledgeable about travel in Mexico and can provide a nice backyard for tent camping (showers too) and a nice garage for wrenching in."
Sounds good to me, thanks Olson! Contact Olson via the HU Community listing for Fayetteville, NC.
