THE UNOFFICIAL TRAVELER
Getting to Know Jonathan
My name is Jonathan Dryer. I’m a southern guy with a love for adventure and the outdoors. I’m not afraid of taking risks for the experience of a lifetime. My astrological sign is a Sagittarius, so traveling and learning about the world hands-on is love.
I’m the youngest of five brothers and five sisters. My family has greatly influenced who I am today. I grew up traveling stateside for family reunions and vacationing during the summer. Travel was instilled in me at a young age so it naturally carried over into my adulthood.
As a single father of two beautiful daughters and the successful business owner of a trucking company, I feel the need to explore the world and bring along my daughters as much as possible. My hope for them is to make many fond memories similar to the ones that I now cherish as an adult.
I am the UnOfficial Traveler.
