E384 – Jeremy’s Nomadic Travel Career

Jeremy Mendelson has been following The Sprocket Podcast for some time, and has been on the show a few times before (once in 2012 and once in 2015), but this is the first time he’s been to Portland!  We chat about his many travels by bike, the transit jobs between trips that fund his adventures, and his take on the oft-hailed Portland, Oregon now that he’s finally been able to see it in person.  Listen to episodes of his Critical Transit podcast!
