Matthew Poole

Hi, I'm Matt but you can call me House! I hiked the PCT in 2018 to try and find myself. I didn’t but found my love for long distance adventures. I cycled the Trans-American Trail in 2020 and am planning a '22 AT thru hike. In between adventures, I am a waiter, introductory sommelier, and binge watch The Office until it's time to leave again.
