Transiting the City
I still have yet to own a car. I have a driver’s license, but in reality I am in a cockpit more often than the front seat of an automobile. This life choice has been challenging at times, but I have been quite fortunate to have lived in situations where owning a car is not required.
I wanted to take a deep dive on my thoughts on transportation in the Bay Area, and how a single guy makes it all work in a cost-effective and sane-ish way.

I moved to San Francisco in 2015 and before I knew it I was rapidly discovering new neighborhoods and attractions throughout the city.
