Chance Quote by Andrew Bird
“You travel with the hope that something unexpected will happen. It has to do with enjoying being lost and figuring it out and the satisfaction. I always get a little disappointed when I know too well where I'm going, or when I've lived in a place so long that there's no chance I could possibly get lost.”

![“I knew Shin [Biyajima] a little bit early on, but it's funny because where I really met Shin, and where he made a strong impression on me, was in Jackson Hole. I sledded back to a secret zone way deep in the Jackson backcountry to some freeriding. I got out there and followed some snowmobile…” quote by Travis Rice](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/2af/travis-rice-11666_bits_i-knew-shin-biyajima-a-little-bit-early_721355.jpg)
