Explore the World in Maps and Moments

Infographics that bring the Vagabond Adventure journey to life — from deserts to glaciers, ancient cities to lost trails.

Explore the world in maps and moments.

These infographics capture the spirit and story of the Vagabond Adventure — what it is, where it goes, and why it exists. Each one translates part of the journey into a single, shareable visual: the philosophy behind the project, the routes we’ve driven and hiked, and the people and places that give the adventure life.

From the sands of Egypt to the glaciers of Patagonia, these graphics connect miles to meaning — one image, one idea, one expedition at a time.

A Vagabond Adventure

This flagship infographic introduces the Vagabond Adventure mission — why it began, who’s traveling, and what we hope to discover along the way.

It outlines the goals of the expedition: to explore the planet overland, uncover how culture and curiosity intersect, and share those discoveries through stories, photos, and data.

You’ll also find ways to follow the journey in real time — across continents and channels — as the road unfolds from one extraordinary place to the next.

It’s both a visual roadmap and a statement of purpose: an open invitation to travel deeper, stay curious, and see what connects us all.
