Screw picket fences. Live your best life. Sleep in the dirt.
Hi! I’m Tim Mathis. That’s my wife Angel.
Do you daydream about sleeping in the woods, spending winters in Mexico, or participating in countercultural revolutions? I write about travel, the outdoors and the meaning of life for people like you.
I’ve written a couple of books: The Dirtbag's Guide to Life, and I Hope I Was Wrong About Eternal Damnation: An Absolutely True Memoir. Have a look. You might like them. I'm working on more.
My writing's also been featured in publications like Trail Runner, Grit City, and The Intrepid Times. I’ve been interviewed on The Art of Manliness podcast among others, and I have won awards for my short travel writing.
Send me a message through the form on the About page if you'd like to connect.
Would you like to be delighted and entertained once every two weeks?
I send out fun, useful and/or interesting creations every two weeks (more or less).
Signing up will give you all of that, and immediate access to a free book - The Missionaries, Dirtbags and Backpackers Mixtape. It has award winning travel stories, highlights from the other books, and a few strange poems. It's some of the best I've got in short form, and it's totally free.
You know, if you're interested.
