About

When the going gets tough, be easygoing.

My name is Adrian Richard Vigil Jr.—A.J. for short. I’m an LA-based creative, a Houston native, and an adventurer at heart. This is the place where I share my travels, experiences, and advice in long-form fashion. Social media does a good job of reducing entire journeys into a single photo or just a few moments. It’s the most accessible sharing tool, but you can’t share the struggle getting to your destination, the magic of arriving, or the attempt to unpack your emotions once it’s all over. This is a space for me to turn those jumbled thoughts in my head into concrete ideas and conclusions. But this is also a space for you to get inspired! My dream is to influence people to chase their dreams, be adventurous, and see the world. Nature is Earth’s gift to us, and culture is our gift to others. We just have to go out and experience it!

I chose the name easygoings because I wanted something that was representative of my outlook on life. Sure, life gets hard, but that’s where the best character development happens!
