Site Note: Advertising
// February 11th, 2010 // No Comments » // News
If you’re a regular to the Part Time Vagabond site, you may have noticed a new little widget in the sidebar. This is my Amazon Affiliate store, where you can purchase items from Amazon.com. But don’t worry, you won’t see car parts or books on knitting. This store is unique to PTV, as all the items are handpicked and recommended by yours truly.
I decided to put this affiliate store up – and indeed, I will start taking advertising clients soon – as a way to not only keep Part Time Vagabond moving forward, but to support both the site costs and the PTV video production costs. Seeing as right now, this (in addition to Filmosity Productions) is my full time job, I think it’s a good idea. So worry not, any advertising will be very much related to Part Time Vagabond.
Thanks for your support, and keep making your adventures happen!





Yes, it’s that time of year once again where the temperatures cool, the leaves begin to turn, and the summer fun gear gets put away. Usually, I can get away with riding my bike until early October, just about the time when I finally stop wearing shorts and start in with the long pants. Unfortunately, I’ve had to cut my bike riding season short this year, as I’ve broken two spokes on my rear wheel, rendering it effectively useless until I can find the money to have the wheel respoked and trued. This happened about two weeks ago, so I’ve been off my bike since then, and my body is rebelling about that. I knew when I popped the first spoke that I’d have to hurry to get the wheel fixed, but when I went out for a ride a few weeks ago, and I heard the “twhang” of snapping metal as my rear wheel started to wobble, I knew it was over. I may actually have to get the entire wheel rebuilt, as it seems the spokes are old enough that they’re breaking. That will cost me. So for now, my bike sits sans rear wheel, and I wait until I have enough saved to get it fixed. Who’s up for some skiing?
Hey there! My name is Chris, and I am the Part Time Vagabond. Why part time? Well, while I'm based in the great city of Portland, Maine, where I live and work, I also love to travel. Unfortunately, I haven't yet figured out how to drop everything and travel full time. Meanwhile, I whittle away the hours creating videos, doing social media work, and playing outside. So welcome to Part Time Vagabond, the intersection of travel, outdoor life, and good craft beer.
