A man in Texas if following in a family tradition by taking himself on a “great big adventure”…and he quit his job to do it. Cyril Bertheau says he left his six-figure tech job to focus on his quest to ride a horse from Austin, Texas to Seattle, Washington. Bertheau says he purchased a horse on Cragslist and plans to spend 100 days riding it through New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho before his big arrival in Seattle.
As for what he plans to get out of this ride, Bertheau says “I think I’m going to learn about myself. I think I’m going to learn about the country I live in, the people I live with. I’m going to have what seems like insurmountable challenges ahead, and I’m just going to be ready to face them.” This industrious former tech employee plans to hang in Seattle for a week before making the trip back home.
