Routine is the enemy of time. With this in mind, cyclist Jedidiah Jenkins set off on a trip from Oregon to Patagonia to stretch his life to 1,000 years. Watch the video and you’ll understand.

For those with a little wanderlust, the film by  will preach to the choir. But it’s a well stated argument in support of ditching it all and traveling the world.

“I hope that this film is a healthy nudge for people to shake up their lives a little bit,” he reports. “Jed’s radical choice to quit his job and ride his bike across the world is a perfect challenge to the rest of us to get out of the routine and make some scary decisions. If you’re afraid of a decision ahead of you, you’re probably on the right track. Choose it!”
