Four Wheeled Nomad is Lisa Morris and Jason Spafford. Remote worldly exploration for the last two decades enables their passion as content creators. Lisa’s been telling tales from the trails for 20 years, freelancing for publications worldwide since 2014 to inspire people to preserve the wild places left in the world. Jason is a photographer and filmmaker; his penchant for the former began in 1983. Jason’s internationally published portfolio is layered in adventure travel, commercial, landscape, and wildlife. Previously, they co-ran scuba diving trips, then motorcycled 80,000 miles from Antarctica to the top of Alaska over five years, and have spent months in an Indian ashram intensively practicing yoga and meditation. Recent years have seen them hiking and driving in remote corners of the planet. Today, they traverse the wild terrains of North America astride their adventurized KTM 500 EXC-Fs, documenting their escapades in the dirt on YouTube. With expertise in Camping, Filmmaking, Hiking, Motorcycling, Outdoor Gear, Overlanding (4WD), Photography, Scuba Diving, Spirituality, and Trekking, their mantra remains: “If you’re excited by your current path, you’re on the right one.”

A Word from Lisa Morris
Remote exploration enables our passion as content creators. As contributors for GearJunkie and freelancers for publications worldwide, we’ve facilitated our life in a way that becomes an expression of joy rather than a pursuit of it.
I was commissioned to write my first article about ‘Life on a Container Ship’ in 2014, although I began blogging 20 years ago. Jason’s penchant for photography started at age 14. Since converging paths in 2000, I’ve taken care of the word craft, Jason’s captured the visuals, and we haven’t looked back.
Our personal interests include Camping, Cooking on the Road, Filmmaking, Hang-gliding, Hiking, Meditation, Motorcycling, Overlanding (4WD), Paragliding, Photography, Scuba Diving, Spirituality, Trekking, and Yoga.
