Chase Fagen
Trying to learn about the world and life.
Meandering thoughts and inner exploration
May 2026: Europe and Ericeira
Netherlands, Belgium, and landing in Ericeira to surf, work, and keep building.
April 2026: Turning 26
Turning 26, visiting San Diego, and reflecting on friendship, freedom, and the life I want to build.
March 2026: United States, Working Hard
Back home in Florida deploying AI agents, attending conferences, and chasing deals in New Jersey.
What I am building
The site should read like a personal operating system first: work, writing, travel, and useful products in that order.
AI systems for local businesses
Voice agents, call-center workflows, booking automation, analytics, and practical software for service businesses.
Lifestyle Engineering
A public notebook on health, work, travel, discipline, family, place, and building a life with real value.
Travel intelligence
Maps and guides built from lived experience, not scraped lists or generic destination content.
The route is the archive
The countries, posts, photos, maps, and packing list are the source material. The guides come after the lived experience.
Useful products, not the front door
Surf, adventure, and wellness guides now live in their own buying path. The homepage keeps them secondary.
Surf Town Atlas
Field-tested towns scored for waves, consistency, vibe, walkability, internet, and long-stay viability.
Adventure Atlas
A shortlist of countries for motorbike loops, waterfalls, islands, caves, boats, and high-variance travel days.
Wellness Atlas
Countries that support reset: hot springs, slower rhythms, food rituals, mountain air, quiet walks, and real recovery.
