by Thomas Flynn
This is the story of my life over the pasty several years, beginning with a motorcycle trip I made a few years ago from my home in Annapolis, Maryland to Ushuaia, Argentina, the southernmost city in the world. It was an adventure that was full of people and experiences that come back to me in some way every day. It continues with my year in Savannah, Georgia, studying sound design, then two years in Portland, Oregon, where I worked at radio station KBOO 90.7 FM, and now back to Annapolis, where I am seeking work in Baltimore. The motorcycle trip is The Road to Ushuaia, just a part of the longer trip of these several years, which I call The Road Live.
