RTW TRAVELER PROFILE - Davin Bowerman
Next February, Davin will finish his tour with the United States Navy and head overseas for an around the world adventure that he hopes will take him to Europe, Africa, SE Asia and the Pacific. With $9,000 USD in his pocket and a severe case of wanderlust, Davin hopes to "work as I go, and crash with longhairs, and be one when I can offer hospitality." If you're planning on going around the world, Davin will offer indispensable advice on your doorstep, as long as you let him crash on your couch.
