DevinSuperTramp - If the name fits, use it :)

A lot of people have been asking where my youtube name comes from! Well, here's my answer! :)


The name comes from one of my favorite books of ALL TIME. "Into The Wild". They also made a movie on it as well. It's a true story of a guy named Christopher Mccandless, who decides to leave everything he was stuck in, to live, to pursue his dreams. Even though his story didn't have a happy ending, everything leading up to it did. When Christopher decides to pursuse this new life of pursuing his passion, he even changes his name, to Alexander Supertramp.

And that's where I got my Supertramp name from :)

With that in mind I want the same thing, to live my dreams, to go out, and achieve all these dreams. To live the dream :)

I've ran into so many people, even friends who talk about what they really want to do with there lives... but they never take that step... I think so many people have the potential to do what they want in life.. however they for whatever reason, never use that power within them.

With my youtube channel, I try to make the same kind of connections, the idea of being free, doing what you love, exploring the world, using your talents to inspire, and perhaps even change the world for a better place, to show the world in a way no one has ever seen before.

For those who haven't read the book, or watched the movie, check out the movie trailer right below.



I want my youtube channel to be the place people can go "to live", and to be reminded that they to can pursue and live there dreams :)

"If you want something in life, reach out and grab it".

  8. I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what you've got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
