Welcome to the quirky and (sometimes) quixotic Internet home of Matt Villano — writer, editor, whale-worshipper and all-around lovable weirdo.

Here you can learn more about me and the things I like about life. You also can read my adventure travel blog, check out my resume, see some of my multimedia experience and peruse a growing library of stuff I've written over the years. Stick around! Click away! Most importantly, enjoy.

WHAT'S NEW: I've signed aboard as the new family travel blogger for Parenting magazine. The blog is titled "Are We There Yet?" Read it by clicking here.
