About WestWithAlex
A real life.
A wider one.
Keep the career, responsibilities, and goals. Make the life around them bigger. I’m Alex—a SoCal native and full-time professional proving adventure doesn’t have to wait for a sabbatical.
The story
I built this for people
building something else.
“A real life. A wider one.” is the idea that you don’t have to abandon your everyday life to live fully. Careers matter. Goals matter. But the years you spend working toward the life you want are still your life.
WestWithAlex began as my way of romanticizing what was already close: a sunrise drive, a new trail, good coffee, a two-night escape that made Monday feel farther away.
From San Diego and Mammoth to Grand Teton, Austin, and Cabo, I’m sharing what I actually experience—then turning it into useful inspiration for your own time off.
