About WILDSAM

The name WILDSAM comes from John Steinbeck's East of Eden, and a quote that describes its main character, Sam Hamilton, as having "that joyous faraway look" on his face. It's that look, that eagerness to face the wilderness and lean forward, that forms the foundation that WILDSAM is built on. Founded in 2012, WILDSAM sells the American Dream in the form of its city-by-city travel guides, and the in-depth analysis each one offers. By mixing historical anecdotes, local interviews, memoir and hand-drawn maps, each guide explores the region in a unique way, both accessible and intricate, making your travel experience one worth remembering, and repeating.
