Dan Norris is worth $2 Million, his face is on posters hung on the walls of millions of young baseball fans, he’s adored by fans of the sport, and yet he lives in a camper van. Not a mansion. Not on a private estate, surrounded by security guards and hangers on. Not in some gaudy shell surrounded y meaningless, chintzy shit.
It’s quite an incredible story, and one that we, here at Mpora, have picked up on in the past. It seem to be the tale of a man not just walking away from regular life, but walking away from the lifestyle of a super star athlete, and all the trappings that go along with that, so he can connect with that indefinable thing, that special something we feel when we’re in the mountains, walking through a forest, floating out at sea. That bizarre reset that nature gives us.
