John Early is based out of his hometown Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. However, his world travels, like his writing and projects in life, always define new territory. Some of the roles John has taken on include emceeing major music festivals, national tour manager for Nintendo, entertaining on cruise ships in the Caribbean, touring on the 2010 Olympic Torch Relay across Canada, and managing adventure travel tours in Asia and Central America. From Bangkok to Zapopan, a journal and his lactose-intolerant guitar, Norma, have always been at hand. John's formal education consists of a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing and Management at the University of Saskatchewan and ESC Rouen, France. Since then, it has been John's decade of globe trotting and the people he's encountered through which he has found his real education and reason to smile in life. Tales of the Modern Nomad is his first book. *Follow the journey on Instagram @johntearly
